The Washington Sunday Chronicle was
first published in 1861 by John Wein Forney, an ancestor of Michael
Forney, Operating Officer of the WSC. At the time of its
founding, the paper was the Washington Sunday Morning Chronicle.
John Forney, who had been serving as the Secretary of the Senate,
expanded the paper to a daily at the urging of his close friend,
President Abraham Lincoln. It is said that John Forney
established the paper and supported it expansion, at Lincoln's
behest, as a means to support the Lincoln Administration and its
policies, and to counter the criticism of New York Tribune.
After Lincoln's assassination Forney
kept the paper a short while and then sold it.
Michael Forney learned of the
Washington Sunday Morning Chronicle several years ago when doing
family research with his son for a school project. Given it
historic and historical legacy, and the current political climate in
the U.S., it seems only right that the WSC make a comeback and
assume it place in national politics. |
