Above, "you know who" made it to front page of The Daily News in 2001.The Los Angeles Daily News hit 100 years old today.
In today's editorial marking the milestone, they wrote:
The Daily News has been passing down the San Fernando Valley's stories ever since the company's founding Oct. 13, 1911, as The Van Nuys Call. The history of this city within the city of Los Angeles lives in the archives of its hometown paper. In the paper's own history, too.
Like the communities it covers, the paper changed its name a few times: from the Van Nuys Call to The Van Nuys News, then The Valley News and Green Sheet, then the Valley News and finally (in 1981) the Daily News.
The Daily News put yours truly on their front page in July 2001 in their article on the ceremony at the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors honoring the surviving cast members of the Adventures of Superman on the show's 50th anniversary. I arranged for the ceremony through the offices of L.A. County Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich. Imagine my surprise when I saw myself staring out of newsracks.
Congratulations to The Daily News on their 100th anniversary!
