Publishing business

The original newspaper, The Daily Court Journal (Los Angeles), began publication in 1888. Charles T. Munger, who was also vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, purchased the paper in 1977; through a series of acquisitions and organic growth, Munger built it into a group of newspapers and websites that provide information on the legal industry, real estate and general business. The company publishes ten newspapers in California and Arizona. Its largest publications are the Los Angeles Daily Journal and the San Francisco Daily Journal.

The Daily Journal newspapers have won numerous awards for its journalism, with the Los Angeles Press Club in 2003 noting that the Los Angeles Daily Journal was "the most award-winning newspaper in Los Angeles with the sole exception of the Los Angeles Times."[6]

Advertising and newspaper representative

The Daily Journal's publications carry commercial advertising, and most also contain public notice advertising. Commercial advertising consists of display and classified advertising and the employment advertising marketplace. Public notice advertising consists of many types of legal notices required by law to be published in an adjudicated newspaper of general circulation, including notices of death, fictitious business names, trustee sale notices and notices of governmental hearings. The major types of public notice advertisers are real estate–related businesses and trustees, governmental agencies, attorneys and businesses or individuals filing fictitious business name statements.

A fictitious business name web site, www.DBAstore.com, enables individuals to send their statements to the company for filing and publication. www.LegalAdStore.com, enables attorneys and individuals to send probate, civil, corporate, public sale and other types of public notices to the company. www.CaPublicnotices.com displays Public Notices for different communities throughout the state.
