In November, 1925, Hearst gained controlling interest in another Syracuse daily, the Syracuse Journal (1899–1929) which he merged with the Telegram.[4] The name was changed to the Journal-Telegram and was later shortened to Syracuse Journal.[5]
The Syracuse Telegram was a sole and separate company from a defunct newspaper called the Syracuse Telegram and Courier which operated during the years 1856 to 1905.[6]
