''The Wakefield Daily Item'' is an independent weekday daily newspaper published in Wakefield, Massachusetts, with issues published Mondays through Fridays. Fred W. Young printed the first ''Item'' on May 7, 1894, running the paper until selling to printer Alstead W. Browne in March 1900; he sold out to Harris M. Dolbeare, who established the Wakefield Item Company April 1, 1900.〔(WakefieldItem.com: About ), accessed January 26, 2007. 〕 The Item is famous for the "Looking Backward" column, detailing events that took place in Wakefield and around the country 25, 50, 75, and 100 years ago from the date of the newspaper. The Item's presidents have all been Dolbeare's heirs—his widow Emma Dolbeare, sons Cyrus and Richard Dolbeare, and now grandson Glenn Dolbeare. The paper has had seven editors: Harris Dolbeare (1900-1938, when he died), Gardner Campbell (1938-1953), Robert C. Reed (1953-1966), Kendall Dolbeare (1966-1986), Janet Constantakes (1986-1988) and Peter Rossi (since 1988).〔 The newspaper competes for readers in Wakefield with a local edition of the ''Daily Times Chronicle'', based in nearby Woburn and Reading; and with the ''Wakefield Observer'', a weekly newspaper published at the Beverly office of Community Newspaper Company. On January 27, 2009, the Item changed its format from broadsheet to tabloid. The Item is located at 26 Albion Street in the town center. == See also == * Item Building (Wakefield, Massachusetts) 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 Wakefield Daily Item」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
