One year ago today the Santa Monica Daily Press hit the streets in hopes of informing residents of what’s going on in the city.
We hope we’ve done that and more.
The Daily Press debuted Nov. 13, 2001 with eight pages and a distribution of 4,000 copies. Today, we fluctuate between 16 and 20 pages, and a circulation of more than 15,000.
We couldn’t have made it the last year without the support of our advertisers who believe the Daily Press provides an effective medium for marketing business to locals who live, work and play in Santa Monica, as well as visitors. And to our readers, without your interest in local issues we wouldn’t have an audience to write for.
We thank everyone who has supported the Daily Press the past 365 days and we to look forward to serving Santa Monica as its daily newspaper for years to come.
