News Outlets' Online Presences: Local

Palo Alto Daily Post: Only some articles are available online. From Dave Price and Jim Pavelic (founders of the Palo Alto Daily News, back when it was an active and excellent local paper). Published at 385 Forest Ave. near Waverly St., downtown Palo Alto. This paper is the standard-bearer for local news.
San Mateo Daily Journal. A major independent paper (owner is SMDJ LLC, publisher is Jerry Lee) serving the mid-San Francisco Peninsula, published from 1720 S. Amphlett Blvd. #123, San Mateo. It's pretty good.
Outlets of Embarcadero Media (formerly Embarcadero Publishing Company), 450 Cambridge Ave. off El Camino Real, Palo Alto:
- Almanac: local news about Menlo Park, Atherton, Portola Valley and Woodside. Office at 3525 Alameda de las Pulgas, north of Gordon Ave. Very much a Chamber of Commerce mouthpiece. Also operates useful free classifieds site Fogster.
- Mountain View Voice
- Palo Alto Weekly, daily variant, and Community Calendar.
- Redwood City Pulse
- The Six Fifty (Web site only; food & entertainment)
Outlets of MediaNews Group aka MNG Enterprises, Inc. d/b/a Digital First Media (owned by hedge fund Alden Global Capital, which has gutted the newsrooms of the owned news operations), Denver, Colorado, under its Bay Area News Group subsidiary:
- Daily News (formerly Palo Alto Daily News, but now consolidated with the San Mateo, Redwood City, and Burlingame Daily News operations). Currently operated as an extremely generic and bland suburban paper by Digital First Media of Denver (formerly MediaNews Group, formerly McClatchy, formerly Knight Ridder, formerly Dave Price and Jim Pavelich). Note: Despite the name, it's been published (on paper) weekly since March 2015.
- East Bay Times (merger by current owners of the former Contra Costa Times and Oakland Tribune). Also incorporate the former, now-terminated (Hayward) Daily Review, (Pleasanton) Tri-Valley Herald, Tri-Valley Times, San Joaquin Herald, East County Times, Valley Times, Fremont Argus, and San Ramon Valley Times. Daily newspaper. Offices in Walnut Creek and San Jose.
- Mercury News (renamed 1983, formerly San Jose Mercury News). Also includes the former, now-terminated Milpitas Post. A major morning daily newspaper. Offices in downtown San Jose.
- Peninsula by Palo Alto Daily News. A slightly different reshuffle of the Digital First Media / Mercury News coverage. A morning daily newspaper.
- San Mateo County Times, formerly San Mateo Times. Doesn't really exist as a newspaper since its complete dissolution in 2016 (following over 100 years of local prominence), so now it's just a Mercury News Web-site subpage. Local coverage by Digital First Media as part of its Mercury News operation in San Jose. This ownership resulted from the takeover in 2006 of the former San Mateo Daily News (run by Dave Price and Jim Pavelich of the then-real Palo Alto Daily News) by Knight Ridder, and then dismemberment of Knight Ridder in 2009 and sale of all of Daily News operations to MediaNews Group (subsidiary of Digital First Media following 2013 merger with 21st Century Media).

Above is nowhere near an exhaustive list of California newspapers with online presence and California-news-heavy Web sites, but I hope I've caught the major ones. (more)

I carefully omit the hundreds of "pink slime Web sites" founded after around 2018 with 90% algorithmically generated content and 10% partisan talking points being injected into public discourse.
