The Press Democrat Newspaper Information

The Press Democrat, with the largest circulation in the California North Bay (San Francisco Bay Area), is a daily newspaper published in Santa Rosa, California.

It was founded in 1897 by Ernest L. Finley who merged his Evening Press and Thomas Thompson's Sonoma Democrat (originally created as a voice for the Democratic Party). Finley also bought the Santa Rosa Republican in 1927 and merged it with the Press Democrat in 1948. It is currently owned by Halifax Media Group after being purchased from the New York Times.
