The newspaper is headquartered in downtown Oakland, California. It is one of five local Post Newspapers published by the Post News Group, along with the Oakland Post, the Berkeley Tri-City Post, the San Francisco Post and the South County Post.[1]
Its newly promoted editor, Chauncey Bailey, was killed by a gunman at close range on the morning August 2, 2007, as he was walking to his office, in what police described as "an assassination".[2] Witnesses said a single gunman wearing dark clothing and a ski mask [3] approached Bailey, shot twice and ran away.[2] In June 2007, Bailey had been promoted to Editor-in-Chief of all five Post newspapers.
