A region's press: anatomy of newspapers in the San Francisco Bay Area
Berkeley: Institute of Governmental Studies, University of California, 1971. Paperback. xii+172p., trade-size softbound, externally very worn with creasings to cover wrap and tiny dog ears to lower corner-tips (from a bump perhaps). An uglified copy but a clean, sound, unmarked one; for reference and just plain reading. A very canny evaluation of local press, big and little, starting with how The SF Chron and SF Examiner compete. The Berkeley Gazette is an anachronism only slightly better able to deal with present-day stuff than the Vallejo Times-Herald. Dailies. Weeklies. Opinion columns. Editors (by name). The press and student activism. Comparative foreign news coverage.
