About the Organization: United Press was a news service created by Edward W. Scripps in 1907. Scripps had, by this time, acquired a group of newspapers that would later form the basis for the Scripps-Howard chain. The United Press merged with the Hearst-owned International News Service in 1956 to form United Press International (UPI).
