[PRCo] Re: Pittsburgh newspapers

[Tom Phillips]

Thanks, Bob, for correcting my post -- I did not live in Pittsburgh 
during that timeframe so was relying on memory which was way off 
base on all counts..

The Sun-Telegraph was acquired by the Post-Gazette on 4/23/60. It carried
both newspaper names on the masthead and published mornings, afternoons and
Sundays (from the Sun-Telegraph building on Grant St.) for 18 months (as
Derrick stated earlier today).  On 11/12/61 the P-G enetered into a joint
operating agreement with the Press, and the Sun-Telegraph name quietly
disappeared.
