Detroit Journal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Detroit Journal was a newspaper in Detroit, Michigan. It was bought out by the Detroit News in 1922. Its publisher was William H. Brearly, who had previously been the advertising manager at the Detroit News.

In 1995, the name was also used to refer to a newspaper by workers who were on strike from the current major newspapers, the Detroit Free Press, and the Detroit News, for their own "strikers' newspaper." It was really called the Sunday Journal but was sometimes mistakenly referred to as the Detroit Journal.[1][2]

The President of Detroit Journal Co. was Edward D. Stair.[3]
