Los Angeles Herald-examinerThe Los Angeles Herald Examiner was a major Los Angeles daily newspaper, published Monday through Friday afternoon and on Saturdays. It was part of the Hearst syndicate. The afternoon Herald-Express and the morning Examiner, both of which had been publishing in the city since the turn of the century, merged in 1962. The paper was the subject of a long, costly strike by the Guild that began in 1968 in which many veteran reporters left and never returned. The Herald Examiner went out of business November 2, 1989, leaving the Los Angeles Times as the city's major daily newspaper, followed by the Daily News of Los Angeles. The Herald Examiner is available on microfilm at the downtown branch of the Los Angeles Public Library.
