''The Journal News'' is a newspaper in New York serving the New York counties of Westchester, Rockland, and Putnam, a region known as the Lower Hudson Valley. It is owned by the Gannett Company, Inc. ''The Journal News'' was created through a merger of several daily community newspapers serving the three counties. Although the current newspaper's name comes from the ''Rockland Journal-News'', which was based in West Nyack, N.Y., and served Rockland County, the ''Rockland Journal-News'' was actually the third-largest newspaper that Gannett merged to create the larger newspaper. ''The Reporter Dispatch'' from White Plains, N.Y., and the ''Herald Statesman'' in Yonkers, N.Y. were larger and served Westchester County. For years prior to the October 12, 1998, merger that created ''The Journal News'', ten of the newspapers shared substantial content and printing presses. Gannett acquired nine of the newspapers in 1964 from the Macy family and added ''The Star'' in Peekskill, N.Y., in 1985.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Gannett: ''The Journal News'' )〕 These newspapers previously appeared on newsstands in the evening. In 1989, Gannett created a morning edition for Putnam County, Westchester, and the Bronx called ''The Sunrise'',〔(''New York Times'', April 10, 1989, "Sunrise Paper in New York Suburbs" )〕 but it folded after a year. Today, ''The Journal News'' appears in the morning like other New York dailies. ==History== Newspapers that merged to create ''The Journal News'': *''The Daily Times'' (Mamaroneck) *''The Daily Argus'' (Mount Vernon) *''The Standard-Star'' (New Rochelle) *''The Citizen Register'' (Ossining) *''The Star'' (Peekskill) *''The Daily Item'' (Port Chester) *''The Daily News'' (Tarrytown) *''Rockland Journal-News'' (West Nyack) *''The Reporter Dispatch'' (White Plains) *''The Herald Statesman'' (Yonkers) *''The Patent Trader'' (Mount Kisco) In 2005, ''The Journal News'' expanded its Custom Publishing division and began publishing a series of suburban lifestyle magazines about the Lower Hudson Valley region. The first of these publications was ''InTown'', which covered the Westchester market with hyper-local editions targeting different regions of the county: *White Plains *Scarsdale *Northern Westchester (Chappaqua, Mount Kisco, Bedford, Katonah) *Larchmont/Mamaroneck *Bronxville/Tuckahoe/Eastchester *Rye/Harrison/Purchase *River Towns (Hastings, Dobbs Ferry, Irvington, Tarrytown) In late 2006, these numerous editions were all consolidated into one county-wide publication, ''InTown Westchester'', which publishes 10 times a year. ''The Journal News'' also successfully launched ''Rockland Magazine'' and ''Putnam Magazine'' in 2005, and ''Scarsdale Magazine'' (originally InTown Scarsdale) in early 2006. ''The Journal News'' also publishes five ultra-local community weekly "Express" newspapers serving Northern Westchester, Putnam, Yorktown/Cortlandt, Sound Shore and White Plains as well as the Review Press, a weekly newspaper covering Eastchester, Bronxville and Tuckahoe. ''The Journal News Web site, LoHud.com, features daily news updates, more than 40 blogs as well as Varsity Insider, an online source for varsity sports, featuring rosters, schedules and statistic for high school teams throughout the region. On March 7, 2010 ''The Journal News'' closed its press and outsourced printing. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Journal News」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
