The Fraser Coast Chronicle is an online newspaper serving the Fraser Coast area in Queensland, Australia. It was started as the Maryborough Chronicle, Wide Bay and Burnett Advertiser.
History
Charles Hardie Buzacott first published the Maryborough Chronicle, Wide Bay and Burnett Advertiser in Maryborough as a four-page tabloid, in his slab hut in Lennox Street in November 1860. It sold for sixpence and was read from Gayndah in the west and Childers in the north to Gympie in the south.
In 1863, Buzacott sold his interests to William Swain Roberts and Joseph Robinson, who set out to "reflect the community's wants and opinions while boldly and distinctly enunciating our own views".Шаблон:Citation needed As the rough river town turned into a respectable city, its newspaper became a bi-weekly in 1864, a tri-weekly in 1868 and a daily in 1882.
In 1867, Roberts became sole proprietor and managing editor. A Scot, Andrew Dunn from Toowoomba, joined the Chronicle in 1885, beginning a long association with the Dunn family. Through war, flood and fire the presses rolled, although, as one edition reports, it was touch and go in the 1893 Brisbane flood: "We must confess that at this hour (3 a.m.) as we are going to press the state of the flood and events just reported completely upset our anticipation of comparative safety."Шаблон:Citation needed
Circulation growth brought the price down to twopence in 1901 and a penny in 1903.
From 25 April 1947, the title was simplified to Maryborough Chronicle.
After several shifts, Bazaar Street became the Chronicle's new home in 1957. A satellite office operated in Hervey Bay. In 1966 the paper's format changed from broadsheet to tabloid and in 1977 it moved to offset printing.[1]Шаблон:Failed verification[2]Шаблон:Failed verification
