About
"Pressing On" traces the history of two exceptional family-owned newspapers, The Seattle Times and The Wenatchee World. Owned and operated by the Blethen family since 1896, The Times' track record of public-service journalism place it in the first-rank of American newspapers with nine Pulitzer Prizes. The Woods family has owned and managed the Wenatchee paper since 1907. Its front-page slogan is a classic; "Published in the Apple Capital of the World and the Buckle of the Power Belt of the Great Northwest." Rufus Woods, the legendary grandfather of the present publisher, led the push to create the Grand Coulee Dam. Few daily newspapers of any size can match The World for its sense of community.
