Editing Sitka, Alaska (section)

==Media==
===Print===
Sitka is served by the ''[[Daily Sitka Sentinel]]'', one of the few remaining independently owned daily newspapers in the state. Sitka also receives circulation of the ''[[Capital City Weekly]],'' a weekly regional newspaper based out of Juneau.

Alaska's first newspaper following the Alaska purchase, the ''Sitka Times'', was published by Barney O. Ragan on September 19, 1868. Only four issues were published that year, as Ragan cited a lack of resources available at the time. The paper resumed publishing the following year as the ''Alaska Times''. In 1870, it moved to [[Seattle]], where the year following it was renamed the ''Seattle Times'' (not to be confused with [[Seattle Times|the modern-day newspaper of the same name]]).<ref>{{cite book |title=Guide to Alaska Newspapers on Microfilm |url=http://www.library.state.ak.us/hist/hist_docs/newspapers/by_place.pdf |year=1998 |publisher=[[Alaska State Library]] |location=Juneau |pages=324, 332 |access-date=October 29, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071128014232/http://www.library.state.ak.us/hist/hist_docs/newspapers/by_place.pdf |archive-date=November 28, 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
