''The Palm Beach Post'' is a major American daily newspaper serving Palm Beach County in South Florida, and the Treasure Coast area. It is the 80th largest daily newspaper in the United States and the 7th largest in Florida.〔 ==History== ''The Palm Beach Post'' began as ''The Palm Beach County'', a weekly newspaper established in 1908. In January 1916, the weekly became a daily, morning publication known as ''The Palm Beach Post''. In 1934, Palm Beach businessman Edward R. Bradley bought ''The Palm Beach Post'' and ''The Palm Beach Times'', the afternoon daily (except on Sunday). In 1947, both were purchased by longtime resident John Holliday Perry, Sr., who owned a Florida newspaper chain of six dailies and 15 weeklies. In 1948, Perry purchased both the ''Palm Beach Daily News'' and the society magazine ''Palm Beach Life''. In June 1969, Cox Enterprises, based in Atlanta, purchased Perry's Palm Beach and West Palm Beach publications and formed Palm Beach Newspapers, Inc. Cox was founded by James M. Cox, a former Ohio governor and the 1920 Democratic presidential candidate who built a media company that today includes daily newspapers; weekly newspapers, radio and television stations; U.S. cable TV systems, local Internet media sites and Mannheim auto auction locations. In 1979, ''The Palm Beach Times'' was renamed ''The Evening Times''. In 1987, ''The Evening Times'' merged with ''The Post'' to form a single newspaper: ''The Palm Beach Post''. In 1989, all of neighboring sister publication ''Miami News'' assets and archives were merged with the ''Palm Beach Post'' upon the closure of that paper. In 1996, ''The Palm Beach Post'' sponsored Scripps National Spelling Bee winner Wendy Guey. ''Palm Beach Post'' photographer Dallas Kinney won the 1970 Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography for his portfolio of pictures of Florida migrant workers, ''Migration to Misery''. ''Post'' photographers have subsequently been Pulitzer finalists three times.〔(Pulitzer.org ).〕 Editor Edward Sears won the Editor of the Year award in 2004 from Editor & Publisher. Sears led the ''Post'' newsroom from 1985-2005. 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 Palm Beach Post」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
