The East Bay has a free weekly newspaper, the "East Bay Express", which has reported on the culture and politics of the East Bay for over 30 years, and has influenced the identification of the East Bay as a culturally defined region of the Bay Area. The free "East Bay Monthly" has been published since 1970. In the early years of the evolution of "USA Today", during the early 1980s, they operated regional newspapers, with the region's paper entitled "East Bay Today".
