History
The Merced Sun-Star evolved from the San Joaquin Valley Argus, a weekly newspaper based in the nearby city of Snelling which began publishing the paper in 1869. The Argus merged with the Merced Journal in 1890 to become the Merced County Sun. In 1925 another consolidation created the Merced Sun-Star. The newspaper was acquired by the McClatchy Company Newspapers. Currently, the Sun-Star has more than 120 employees that prepare both a print newspaper and an online version.
