Fort Worth Star Telegram : ウィキペディア英語版 | Fort Worth Star-Telegram
The ''Fort Worth Star-Telegram'' is a major U.S. daily newspaper serving Fort Worth and the western half of the North Texas area known as the Metroplex. Its area of domination is checked by its main rival, ''The Dallas Morning News'', which is published in the eastern half of the Metroplex. It is owned by The McClatchy Company. ==History== In May 1905, Amon G. Carter accepted a job as an advertising space salesman in Fort Worth. A few months later, he agreed to help finance and run a new newspaper in town. The ''Fort Worth Star'' printed its first newspaper on February 1, 1906, with Carter as the advertising manager. The ''Star'' lost money, and was in danger of going bankrupt when Carter had an audacious idea: raise additional money and purchase his newspaper's main competition, the ''Fort Worth Telegram''. In November 1908, the ''Star'' purchased the ''Telegram'' for $100,000, and the two newspapers combined on January 1, 1909 into the ''Fort Worth Star-Telegram''. From 1923 until after World War II, the ''Star-Telegram'' was distributed over one of the largest circulation areas of any newspaper in the South, serving not just Fort Worth but also West Texas, New Mexico, and western Oklahoma. The newspaper created WBAP in 1922 and Texas' first television station, WBAP-TV, in 1948.〔http://www.lib.utexas.edu/taro/utarl/00128/arl-00128.html〕
