The Ukiah Daily Journal newspaper covers Mendocino County, California. It is edited by K.c. Meadows.[1]
It was founded in 1860. Some of its name changes and iterations include:
- The Dispatch Democrat (est. 1860)
- Ukiah Republican Press (est. 1876)
- Redwood Journal (est. 1929)
- Redwood Journal-Press Dispatch (consolidated 1949)
- Ukiah Daily Journal (name changed 1954)
- The Ukiah Daily Journal (name changed 2000)[2]
The Journal started out as a weekly and then became a semiweekly. From 1936 to 1939 it was a daily without Sundays, but reverted to a semi-weekly for financial reasons. This was the Dispatch Democrat owned by Mr. Cober. In 1949, Cober bought the Ukiah Republican Press and created the combined Redwood Journal-Press-Dispatch. It was sent out three times a week.
In 1954, it went to a Monday-Friday schedule and became the Ukiah Daily Journal.
In the 1960s, Malcolm Glover created the Mendocino Publishing Company. The Daily Journal started Sunday publication in 1977.
The Donrey Media Group (now Stephens Media) took over in 1984. Then the MediaNews Group (California Newspaper Partnership cluster) bought out the paper and joined its partnership with The Willits News, Hometown Shopper, Mendocino Beacon and Fort Bragg Advocate-News. They are still owned by them and also have a sister paper in the Lake County Record-Bee. Other Northern California Community Newspapers in the cluster include the Eureka Times-Standard, the Redwood Times, the Red Bluff Daily News, the Chico Enterprise-Record, the Oroville Mercury-Register, the Paradise Post, the Woodland Daily Democrat, the Vacaville Reporter, the Vallejo Times-Herald, the Santa Cruz Sentinel and the Monterey Herald.
The ukiahdailyjournal.com started in 1998.
Saturday editions ran from 2003, making it a true daily newspaper until 2011. It now runs on a Tuesday-Sunday publication schedule.[2]
In 2017, the Ukiah Daily Journal won 1st place in the Coverage of Local Government category in its division of California's Better Newspapers Contest.[3]
