''The Press and Journal'' is a daily regional newspaper serving northern and highland Scotland including the cities of Aberdeen and Inverness. Established in 1747, it is Scotland's oldest daily newspaper〔(The Newspaper Society History of British Newspapers ) "1748 ''Aberdeen Journal'' began (Scotland's oldest newspaper – now the ''Press and Journal'')."〕 and one of the longest-running newspapers in the world. ==History== The newspaper was first published as a weekly title, ''Aberdeen's Journal'', on 29 December 1747. In 1748 it changed its name to the ''Aberdeen Journal''. It was published on a weekly basis for 128 years until August 1876, when it became a daily newspaper. The newspaper was owned by the Chalmers family throughout the nineteenth century, and edited by members of the family until 1849, when William Forsyth became editor. Its political position was Conservative.〔 In November 1922, the paper was renamed ''The Aberdeen Press and Journal'' when its parent firm joined forces with the ''Free Press''. Historical copies of the ''Aberdeen Journal'', dating back to 1798, are available to search and view in digitised form at The British Newspaper Archive.〔(Digitised copies of the ''Aberdeen Journal'' )〕 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 Press and Journal (Scotland)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
