Glendale News-Press Identity Crisis

By Pandora Young on August 18, 2009 6:45 AM

The Glendale News-Press currently has an online poll asking readers if the paper should shorten its name to The News-Press. The reasoning for the name change is that the paper covers both Glendale and the Crescenta Valley. Franklin Avenue is voting a big fat no:

The problem: The Glendale News-Press had already altered its name to just “News-Press” at the end of the 1990s and early part of the 2000s, before restoring “Glendale” to its title a few years ago, in order to better promote its civic identity. To switch it again seems awfully wishy-washy — and would diminish its primary mission as Glendale’s daily newspaper.

The voters seem to agree.
