Seattle newspaper

RAMIRO PÉREZ COVARRUBIAS

 The Seattle Times originated as the Seattle Press-Times, a four-page
newspaper founded in 1891 with a daily circulation of 3,500,
which Maine teacher and attorney Alden J. Blethen bought in
1896. Renamed the Seattle Daily Times, it doubled its circulation
within half a year. By 1915, circulation stood at 70,000.
 . The newspaper moved to the Times Square Building at 5th Avenue
and Olive Way in 1915. It built a new headquarters, the Seattle Times
Building, north of Denny Way in 1930. The paper moved to its current
headquarters at 1000 Denny Way in 2011.
 The Seattle Times switched from afternoon delivery to mornings on
March 6, 2000, citing that the move would help them avoid the fate
of other defunct afternoon newspapers. This placed the Times in
direct competition with its Joint Operating Agreement (JOA)
partner, the morning Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Nine years later, the
Post-Intelligencer became an online-only publication.
 The Times is one of the few remaining major city dailies in the United
States independently operated and owned by a local family (the
Blethens). The Seattle Times Company, while owning and operating
the Times, also owns three other papers in Washington, and formerly
owned several newspapers in Maine that were sold to Minetoday
Media. The McClatchy Company owns 49.5 percent of voting
common stock in the Seattle Times Company, formerly held by
Knight Ridder until 2006.
 From 1983 to 2009, the Times and Seattle's other major paper, the
Hearst-owned Seattle Post-Intelligencer, were run under a "Joint
Operating Agreement" (JOA) whereby advertising, production,
marketing, and circulation were controlled by the Times for both
papers. The two papers maintained their own identities with
separate news and editorial departments.
 The Times reporting has received 10 Pulitzer Prizes, most recently for
its breaking news coverage of the 2014 landslide that killed 43
people in Oso, Washington. It has an international reputation for its
investigative journalism, in particular. In April 2010, the Times staff
won the Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News Reporting for its coverage, in
print and online, of the shooting deaths of four police officers in a
Lakewood coffee house and the 40-hour manhunt for the suspect.
 In April 2012, investigative reporters Michael Berens and Ken
Armstrong won the Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting for a
series documenting more than 2,000 deaths caused by the state of
Washington's use of methadone as a recommended painkiller in
state-supported care.
