Publisher Hearst threatened in February that it would sell or shut down the paper if unions would not make concessions.
The San Francisco Chronicle is Northern California’s largest newspaper, serving primarily the San Francisco Bay Area, but distributed throughout Northern and Central California, from the Sacramento area and Emerald Triangle south to San Luis Obispo County. It was founded in 1865 as The Daily Dramatic Chronicle.

Testimonial of the Week
What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
