History
Voice of San Diego is an online daily founded on Feb. 9, 2005 by Buzz Woolley and Neil Morgan, and run jointly by CEO Scott Lewis and editor Andrew Donohue. The website began in 2005 with a staff of four, and has expanded to a paid staff of 14. It relies on a funding mix of foundation grants, member donations and advertising.
The website focuses largely on local quality-of-life issues. It began primarily as a reporting source on local government and politics, and has slowly grown to include coverage of education, housing, environment, public safety, and science and technology. In addition to its news stories, it also publishes house editorials, fact-based columns, contributions from community members, and a stable of regular blogs. The site does not try to be a traditional newspaper; rather, it focuses on a specific number of issues and attempts to bring them great depth.
The site updates regularly throughout the day with news and analysis.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of the past is but one long struggle upward to equality.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“One classic American landscape haunts all of American literature. It is a picture of Eden, perceived at the instant of history when corruption has just begun to set in. The serpent has shown his scaly head in the undergrowth. The apple gleams on the tree. The old drama of the Fall is ready to start all over again.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
“I think that Richard Nixon will go down in history as a true folk hero, who struck a vital blow to the whole diseased concept of the revered image and gave the American virtue of irreverence and skepticism back to the people.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
