The Press Democrat is a daily newspaper in Santa Rosa, California. It was founded in 1897 by Ernest L. Finley who merged his Evening Press and Thomas Thompson's Sonoma Democrat (originally created as a voice for the Democratic Party). Finley also bought the Santa Rosa Republican in 1927 and merged it with the Press Democrat in 1948. It is currently owned by The New York Times Company, as are the North Bay Business Journal, and the Petaluma Argus-Courier.
The paper received the 2004 George Polk Award for Regional Reporting[2] given annually by Long Island University to honor contributions to journalistic integrity and investigative reporting.
