LOS ANGELES (Reuters) -"Headless body in topless bar"-type headlines made famous by the iconic New York Post tabloid could soon greet Californians as Rupert Murdoch's News Corp prepares to expand to the West Coast with its biggest U.S. daily newspaper launch in nearly 15 years.
The California Post, to be headquartered in Los Angeles and set to launch in early 2026, said Sean Giancola, CEO and publisher of the New York Post Media Group, which will include the new publication. California news industryexperts say the tabloid would seek to capitalize on the struggles of the incumbent Los Angeles Times, which has shed subscribers and staff.
