October 30, 1920 – The last editions of The Iowa City Daily Press and The Iowa City Daily Citizen are published.
The Iowa City Press-Citizen was formed in 1920 from the merger of two popular city newspapers: The Iowa City Daily Press – founded in 1860 and representing the political views of the Democrat Party, and The Iowa City Daily Citizen – founded in 1891 and leaning strongly toward Republican politics. The first edition of The Iowa City Press-Citizen rolled off the presses on November 1, 1920.
