The Bakersfield Californian is a renowned local newspaper serving Kern County, California. Established in 1866 as The Weekly Courier, it has a rich history deeply rooted in the region. Originally published in Havilah, a town at the heart of the 1864 gold rush, the newspaper later moved to Bakersfield as the population shifted.
Over time, it underwent several name changes before becoming The Bakersfield Californian in 1907 under the ownership of Alfred Harrell. Harrell's dedication to journalistic excellence earned him a place in the Newspaper Hall of Fame, while his wife Virginia and daughter Bernice later assumed leadership roles. Today, the company is led by Virginia Ginny Cowenhoven, representing the fifth generation of the Harrell-Fritts family.
The Bakersfield Californian has garnered over 40 state and national awards for its outstanding journalism and serves as a vital source of news, information, and community engagement. With a state-of-the-art publishing facility and cutting-edge technology, it remains at the forefront of newspaper innovation in the United States
