The Public Press started as a local online publication that started publishing print newspaper editions in 2010. Tom Goldstein, a professor at the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism told the San Francisco Chronicle that the move, "strikes me as audacious," adding that the move set the Press "apart, and there may be great benefit in being set apart."[2]
In 2019, the Public Press launched KSFP-LP, a low-power FM station at 102.5 FM.[3]
