Southern California News Group Executive Editor Expands Role CONTACT: Caroline Wong Director of Communications Southern California News Group 714-796-2202, [email protected] Southern California News Group Executive Editor Expands Role Anaheim, CA (Feb. 11, 2019) — Southern California News Group’s Publisher and President Ron Hasse announced today that Frank Pine, executive editor of Southern California News Group, is taking on an expanded role in the company and will serve also as executive editor of Bay Area News Group. Pine replaces Neil Chase, who left Bay Area News Group last month to serve as chief executive officer of CALmatters. “Frank has been a leader in digital innovation and has vast experience managing complex editorial operations and projects across properties, publications and platforms,” Hasse said. “In addition to leading SCNG’s newsrooms, Frank has been instrumental in helping define digital strategy for MediaNews Group properties across the U.S., including Northern and Southern California.” With more than 20 years in newspapers, Pine is a proponent of professional, fact-based news that is essential to maintaining healthy and well-informed communities. He is committed to providing readers with the information they need to live well. Pine’s business savvy approach and technical knowledge will be key to developing strategies and initiatives that benefit readers and advertisers alike. While taking on leadership of The Mercury News and East Bay Times newsrooms, Pine will continue to oversee news for Southern California, a position he has held since 2015. “In uniting Bay Area and Southern California newsrooms under Frank’s leadership, we are strengthening our already formidable news teams and creating new opportunities to expand our audience and increase engagement,” said Sharon Ryan, Publisher and President of Bay Area News Group. Pine previously served as director of audience development for MediaNews Group, the parent company of Southern California News Group and Bay Area News Group, and before that was managing editor for the Los Angeles News Group, and editor and general manager of the Inland Empire News Group. Pine has held all manner of newsroom positions, ranging from reporter to page designer to city editor and managing editor since beginning his journalism career at the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin in Ontario (San Bernardino County) in 1996. “I am humbled and honored to work with the talented journalists at The Mercury News and East Bay Times,” Pine said. “These are great newspapers with committed staffs that produce the hard-hitting journalism that now more than ever is essential to a free society and well-functioning democracy.” About Southern California News Group Southern California News Group operates 11 daily newspapers and associated websites in Southern California, including the Los Angeles Daily News, Daily Breeze in Torrance, Long Beach Press-Telegram, The Orange County Register, Pasadena Star-News, The (Riverside) Press-Enterprise, San Gabriel Valley Tribune, Whittier Daily News, Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, The Sun in San Bernardino and Redlands Facts. In addition, when combined with its multiple weekly newspapers, Spanish-language products and social channels, SCNG products will reach an audience of more than 8.1 million readers each week, with in-depth reporting on exclusive content focusing on local news, politics, sports and entertainment relevant to the communities it serves. .

  • The San Francisco Bay Area, California
    The San Francisco Bay Area, Can disaster be a good thing for the arts? In the California San Francisco Bay Area, the answer is a qualified “yes.” A terrible earthquake has shaken loose mil- lions of dollars for the arts, while urban sprawl has boosted the development of arts centers right in the communities where people live. After the Loma Prieta earthquake struck in 1989, many key institutions were declared unsafe and had to be closed, fixed and primped. Here’s what reopened in the past five years alone: American Conservatory Theatre (ACT), the city’s major repertory theater, for $27 million; the War Memorial Opera House, home of the San Francisco Opera and Ballet, for $88 million; and on the fine arts front, the California Palace of the Legion of Honor, for $40 million; and the Cantor Center for the Visual Arts at Stanford University, for $37 million. Another $130 million is being raised to rebuild the seismically crippled M.H. de Young Memorial Museum, and at least $30 million is being sought to repair the Berkeley Art Museum. Within San Francisco itself, a vital visual arts center has been forged just within the last five years with the opening of the new $62 million San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. Meanwhile the Jewish Museum, the Asian Art Museum, the Mexican Museum and a new African-American cultural center all plan to move to seismically safe buildings in the area in the next two years. Art galleries, on the other hand, limp along compared with those in Los Angeles or New York.

  • March 8, 2018 Statement by Harry Harris, East Bay Times Crime
    March 8, 2018 Statement by Harry Harris, East Bay Times crime reporter I have been a journalist for more than 52 years. Luckily, I have been able to work at the same publication for the entire time, starting in 1965 when we were known as the Oakland Tribune. I have been fortunate to have won several awards, including being a leader on our team that won the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for breaking-news coverage. I also won the Northern California Society of Professional Journalists 1996 Unsung Hero award, which is given to a journalist nominated by his or her colleagues for behind the scenes contributions. I believe this background makes me more than qualified to express what a newspaper, and now of course its other platforms, means not only to the communities it serves but to its employees. Times may have changed, but a newspaper and its platforms are what its readers rely on to let them know what is happening in their communities, from government to crime and education, to the environment and transportation, to finance and technology and even things such as movie reviews and prep sports. They expect their newspaper to keep government in check, and to keep them up to date on news and trends both good and bad. They read to see if someone they know has been mentioned in a story or how an event in another part of the world might affect them. They do it to simply keep informed. And some even read it because a newspaper is how they learned to read, and they consider it an old friend.
