Globe-Democrat
The ''St. Louis Globe-Democrat'' was originally a daily print newspaper based in St. Louis, Missouri, from 1852 until 1986. When the trademark registration on the name expired, it was then used as an unrelated free historically themed paper. Original publication (1852–1986) It began operations on July 1, 1852, as ''The Daily Missouri Democrat'', changing its name to ''The Missouri Democrat'' in 1868, then to ''The St. Louis Democrat'' in 1873. It merged with the ''St. Louis Globe'' (founded in 1872) to form the ''St. Louis Globe-Democrat'' in 1875.

Newspaper Preservation Act Of 1970
The Newspaper Preservation Act of 1970 was an Act of the United States Congress, signed by President Richard Nixon, authorizing the formation of joint operating agreements among competing newspaper operations within the same media market area. It exempted newspapers from certain provisions of antitrust laws. Its drafters argued that this would allow the survival of multiple daily newspapers in a given urban market where circulation was declining. This exemption stemmed from the observation that the alternative is usually for at least one of the newspapers, generally the one published in the evening, to cease operations altogether. In practice two daily newspapers published in the same city or geographic area combine business operations while maintaining separate—and competitive—news operations. History The first joint operating agreement was between ''Albuquerque Tribune'' (then the ''New Mexico State Tribune'') and the ''Albuquerque Journal'' in Albuquerque, New Mexico, signed ...
