The ''Lawrence Journal-World'' is a daily newspaper published in Lawrence, Kansas, United States, by The World Company.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Lawrence Journal-World: About us )〕 ==History== Though the ''Journal-World'' title only came into existence in 1911, according to the volume number of the current masthead of the paper, the paper dates itself back to 1858. The Simons family moved to Lawrence in 1891, and took over operations of the ''Lawrence Record'' under a three-month lease. The ''Lawrence World'' was first issued by the Simons on March 2, 1892.〔(13 December 1991). (A 100-Year Newspaper Tradition ), ''Lawrence Journal-World''〕 Wilford Collins Simons served as editor from 1891 until his death in 1952.〔(16 May 1952). (Wilford C. Simons ), ''The New York Times'' (noting death of Simons on May 15, 1952)〕 In 1905, the ''World'' acquired the ''Lawrence Journal'', and merged the ''Journal'' and ''World'' in 1911 after a fire destroyed the offices of the ''Journal''.〔〔(20 Feb 1911). ("Journal-World, The Combination" )〕 The ''Lawrence Daily Journal'' title dates back to approximately 1880, but was a continuation of the ''Republican Daily Journal'' which dates back to at least 1869. The ''Republican Daily Journal'' appears to have been the successor via sale and/or consolidation of earlier Lawrence newspapers.〔(First Biennial Report of the State Board of Agriculture ), p.107-08 (1878)]〕〔(Rowell's American newspaper directory ), p.255 (1887) (reporting founding of Daily/Weekly Journal in 1869)〕 In 2005, developers at the paper created the now-popular Django web framework. In October 2010, the World Company, which owns the Lawrence Journal-World, sold some of their news media business to internet and cable provider Knology for $165 million. The sale included 6 News, the Lawrence area's local television news channel. 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「Lawrence Journal-World」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
