"The new, daily print publication from News Corp, the Rupert Murdoch-owned media conglomerate that also operates Fox News and the New York Post, arrived to bright red fanfare and free bagels in Los Angeles this week. The publication, which like its East Coast counterpart will likely be a more tabloid-style offering in the marketplace rather than a broad, down-the-middle newspaper, aims to speak directly to California conservatives and disaffected liberals ready to hear a new voice on city politics or Gavin Newsom's hair."
"Despite near-nonstop posting about the paper's daily printed editions that can be delivered right to doorsteps, it turns out that the California Post isn't physically available for millions of Californians. Dozens of different ZIP code attempts on the California Post's subscription sign-up page show a scattershot availability for home delivery across the state. On the one hand, that makes sense: California is giant, complex and not easy to blanket for service providers of all sorts. The California Post is also less than a week old;"
News Corp launched a new daily print paper, the California Post, positioned as a tabloid-style outlet aimed at California conservatives and disaffected liberals. The paper debuted in Los Angeles with prominent promotion and free bagels, signaling a local push. Subscription sign-up checks reveal inconsistent home-delivery availability across the state, leaving major cities like Sacramento, Fresno, and Bakersfield without delivery. Central Valley areas that could be receptive face patchy service. The California Post is less than a week old, and delivery networks may expand or improve over time to increase physical availability.
