Cleveland Plain Dealer (Firm)

Biography"The Plain Dealer is the major newspaper of Cleveland, Ohio, United States. The newspaper was established in January 1842 when two brothers, Joseph William Gray and Admiral Nelson Gray, took over The Cleveland Advertiser and changed its name to The Plain Dealer. Although its first edition in 1842 was captioned simply "The Plain Dealer," the name on the newspaper's masthead included "Cleveland" for much of its history, and dropped the city name sometime between 1965 and 1970." -- Wikipedia
