Our Story

Started in 1912 by Jacksonville businessman John Hall McManus, the Jacksonville Daily Record was known for a century as the Financial News & Daily Record.

Throughout its history, the newspaper focused its editorial coverage on Duval County and Jacksonville business, law and the courts. Since 1926, it has served as the official newspaper of the Jacksonville Bar Association. And for more than 50 years, the Fourth Circuit Court of Florida has designated the Daily Record as the official court newspaper of Duval County.

For three generations, McManus and his descendants built the Daily Record into a Jacksonville news media institution. Succeeding McManus as publisher was his son-in-law, James Bailey. Bailey served as publisher until 1974, when he turned the family business over to his son, James Bailey Jr.

Bailey Jr. expanded the business operations to include a commercial printing business. And in 1998, Bailey began publishing Realty-Builder Connection, a monthly newspaper devoted to covering Northeast Florida’s residential real estate and homebuilding industries. In 2017, after 43 years as owner and CEO of what became Bailey Publishing & Communications, Bailey sold the Daily Record and Realty-Builder to Matt Walsh, owner of Sarasota-based Observer Media Group, which also publishes a business and legal weekly on the West Coast of Florida.
