The ''Orlando Sentinel'' is the primary newspaper of Orlando, Florida and the Central Florida region. It was founded in 1876. The ''Sentinel'' is owned by Tribune Publishing. Editorially, it has historically tilted conservative; however it has endorsed a Democrat for president in two of the last three presidential elections. The Sentinel endorsed John Kerry in 2004, and Barack Obama in 2008. The ''Sentinel'' prices are $1.50 daily and $2 on Saturdays, Sundays and Thanksgiving Day; sales tax is included at newsracks. == History == The ''Sentinel''s predecessors date to 1876, when the ''Orange County Reporter'' was first published. The ''Reporter'' became a daily newspaper in 1905, and merged with the ''Orlando Evening Star'' in 1906. Another Orlando paper, the ''South Florida Sentinel'', started publishing as a morning daily in 1913. Then known as the ''Morning Sentinel'', it bought the ''Reporter-Star'' in 1931, when Martin Andersen came to Orlando to manage both papers. Andersen eventually bought both papers outright in 1945, selling them to the Tribune Company of Chicago in 1965. In 1973, the two publications merged into the daily ''Sentinel Star''. Tribune appointed Charles T. Brumback as president in 1976.〔 Harold "Tip" Lifvendahl was named president and publisher in 1981. The newspaper was renamed the ''Orlando Sentinel'' in 1982. John Puerner succeeded Lifvendahl in 1993, who was replaced by Kathleen M. Waltz in 2000. She announced her resignation in February 2008. Howard Greenberg, already publisher of fellow Tribune newspaper the ''Sun-Sentinel'' of Fort Lauderdale, was named publisher of both papers after Waltz left. In 2008, the Tribune Company called for a redesign of the ''Sentinel''. The new layout, which debuted in June 2008, was formatted to appeal to busy readers.〔("Tribune’s Redesign Kicks Off With Orlando Sentinel" )〕〔("US: Orlando Sentinel redesign geared towards "busy readers"" )〕 According to one listing, some of the ''Sentinel''s predecessors are:〔See (Florida Newspapers )—a list of Florida newspapers for which indexes or full-text are available at the University of Central Florida Library.〕 *''Orlando Reporter'': 1892–1903?
