Gannett Co. announced June 1, 2015, that it had acquired ''The Daily Record.''〔http://www.ydr.com/business/ci_28226799/gannett-acquires-york-daily-record〕 ==History== In 1796, Solomon Meyer created ''Die York Gazette'', a weekly, German-language newspaper, which ''The York Daily Record'' credits as its earliest incarnation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Web, mobile, tablet technology causes revisions in York, Pa., news media history )〕 After several years without publication of ''Die York Gazette'', William C. Harris created the English-language ''Gazette'' in 1815. Between 1821 and 1891, ''The Gazette'' also published a weekly German edition. ''The Gazette'' was taken over by David Small in 1836. Small, who also served as York postmaster, county director of the poor and York’s chief burgess, remained owner of the paper for nearly 50 years. Prominent businessman Adam Geesey converted ''The Gazette'' into a daily publication in 1887. ''The Gazette'' became the third York-area newspaper to publish daily. In 1915, Allen C. Wiest and law partner J.W. Gitt acquired the foundering ''Gazette'', which began Gitt's 55-year reign as ''Gazette'' owner. Under Gitt, the newspaper gained a national reputation for its independent—some considered it leftist—news orientation and editorial positions. ''The Gazette'' purchased ''The Daily'', York's first daily newspaper, and the ''York Legal Record'' in 1915. In 1918, ''The Gazette'' was renamed ''The Gazette and Daily''. After nearly 150 years of continuous publication, the paper shut down in 1970 because of labor problems. Gitt sold the paper's assets to a local group headed by attorney Harold N. Fitzkee Jr. and retired the ''The Gazette and Daily'' name. The paper soon reopened under a ''York Daily Record'' nameplate. In 1973, ''The Daily Record'' was sold to Jimmy D. Scoggins, a veteran newspaperman, who changed the paper's format from tabloid to its current broadsheet form. ''The Gazette and Daily'' had become a tab in 1943 because of newsprint shortages during World War II.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=World War II paper shortages prompted change in York, Pa., newspaper size and format )〕 Buckner News Alliance purchased the newspaper from Scoggins in 1978 and modernized the paper's appearance and operations. MediaNews Group, owner of ''The York Dispatch'', purchased the ''York Sunday News'' in 1988. The next year, ''The Daily Record'' and ''The York Dispatch'' sought government approval for a joint operating agreement, a partial merger because "The Daily Record" was facing financial troubles. The U.S. Justice Department approved the JOA in 1990, creating the York Newspaper Co. to manage merged production, circulation and advertising departments. ''The Daily Record'' and ''Dispatch'' newsrooms were not part of the merger and to this day remain under separate ownership. In 2004, Buckner News Alliance sold the ''York Daily Record'' to MediaNews Group, which also owned the ''York Sunday News'' the news organization operated as the ''York Daily Record/Sunday News''. In September 2011, MediaNews Group, parent company of the ''Daily Record'', announced it had appointed John Paton as CEO, and entered into an agreement with Digital First Media. Paton heads Digital First Media which provides management services to MediaNews Group and Journal Register Company publications.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MediaNews Group announces the appointment of John Paton as CEO and the retention of Digital First Media to provide management services )〕 On June 1, 2015, Gannett Co., the largest U.S. newspaper publisher by total daily circulation, said it had acquired the ''Daily Record'' along with several other newspapers from Digital First Media.〔 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「York Daily Record」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
