Region's Press

“A Region's Press: Anatomy of Newspapers in the San Francisco Bay Area” offers a detailed examination of the newspaper landscape in one of America's most dynamic regions. Published in 1971, this study by William L. Rivers and David M. Rubin provides insights into the structure, operations, and influence of the press during a pivotal era of social and political change. The book delves into the unique characteristics of the Bay Area's newspapers, exploring their roles in shaping public opinion and reflecting the diverse communities they serve.
