The San Francisco Daily is a free newspaper in San Francisco, California, published five days a week, beginning 3 May 2006. The S.F. Daily is distributed in stores, coffee shops, restaurants, bars, and workplaces. Its focus is on the Cow Hollow, Laurel Heights, Marina, Nob Hill, Noe Valley, North Beach, Pacific Heights, Russian Hill, West Portal and Western Addition districts, in which its trademark light blue newspaper boxes appear.
[edit] Publishers
The SF Daily is owned by Dave Price and Jim Pavelich, who were the publishers of the Palo Alto Daily News and its sister papers in San Mateo, Burlingame, Los Gatos, Redwood City, and Berkeley. They sold that chain of newspapers to Knight Ridder on Feb. 15, 2005. Joining Price and Pavelich as owners is Amando Mendoza, former circulation director of the Palo Alto Daily News.
[edit] Content
The SF Daily carries a combination of local, regional, national, and international stories. Its focus is on local news, and neighborhood issues dominate the paper, but the publishers' philosophy is that their paper should serve as "one stop shopping" for readers who don't have time to page through larger newspapers, so stories originating outside of San Francisco are also included in the mix.
