The New York Post, part of News Corp, announced on Monday it will launch a sister paper in California in early 2026, with the company saying the brand will bring a mix of “commonsense, fearless journalism,” entertainment news, and sports to the West Coast.

The California Post will be headquartered in Los Angeles and consist of a daily print edition and news website, along with video and audio pieces and a social media presence, and will cover a range of stories “but from a distinctly Californian perspective.”
