Seattle Post Intelligencer - For hundreds of thousands of people in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest, it's not morning without their P-I.

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer is the oldest morning newspaper in the state of Washington and has a following throughout the Northwest. It has been "The Voice of the Northwest since 1863."

Atop the P-I's office building on the Elliott Bay waterfront, with its views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains, sits a beloved Seattle landmark: a huge steel, neon-lit globe bearing the slogan "It's in the P-I." Look for the globe in one form or another on every page of this Web site.

The heart of the Seattle P-I is the 200 staffers led by Publisher Roger Oglesby and Executive Editor Ken Bunting. All are dedicated to providing both an independent editorial voice for the Seattle area and fiercely competitive, highly professional coverage of local, national and regional news, public affairs, sports, the arts and popular culture.

The P-I's press, pre-press, advertising, circulation and marketing functions have been handled since 1983 by The Seattle Times Co., acting as the Seattle Newspaper Agency, in a Joint Operating Agreement under the provisions of the federal Newspaper Preservation Act.

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer newspaper is part of The Hearst Corp., one of the world's larger diversified communications companies, with interests in newspaper, magazine, book and business publishing; television and radio broadcasting; cable network programming; newspaper features distribution; television production and distribution; and interactive media activities.
