NEWSPAPERS
In newspaper names the editors, following
the practice of the first edition of the Handbook, have treated city
names as adjectives denoting the point of origin, not as part of the title. The
result is that the title strictly speaking is italicized and the city name is
not: Houston Post, Brownwood Bulletin. In the first edition,
if a newspaper had a name without a city in its masthead, it was listed with the
city in parentheses: Redlander (San Augustine). But there is no
essential difference between this entry form and the form Dallas Morning
News, since both declare some independence from the masthead. For the sake
of bibliographical simplification, the editors of the New Handbook have
tried to be uniform in their practice. When a newspaper was published at several
locations, however, the name is given without a city; the Telegraph and
Texas Register is a case in point.
