The Press is a local, daily newspaper, for North and East Yorkshire[5]. It is published in the City of York by Newsquest Media Group Ltd, a subsidiary of Gannett Company Inc.[1]
The Yorkshire Evening Press was first published in 1882.[2] It changed from broadsheet to compact format on 6 September 2004 and shortly afterwards dropped "Yorkshire" from the title. Morning printing began on 24 April 2006 and the paper was given its present name.[citation needed]
William Wallace Hargrove opened his paper at 9 Coney Street. In 1989 it moved to Walmgate.[2]
