History

The newspaper began publishing as part of the Fresno Bee in 1990, with an initial circulation of 19,000.[2] Their initial objective was to produce a paper in both English and Spanish, to help reach readers whose first or primary language was Spanish.[5] They also focused on topics of interest to Latino communities in and around Fresno, beyond specialized topics like immigration, such as community events, local issues, and advertisements for local businesses.[5] Juan Esparza Loera has been editor of the paper since its founding.[6]

In 2008, Vida en el Valle's publisher, McClatchy created a partnership with ImpreMedia to share Spanish-language content.[7]

In 2011, Vida en el Valle joined the newly-formed Hispanic National Preprint Network (Hispanic NPN), a network aimed at increasing and strengthening market coverage for member papers.[8] Also in 2011, McClatchy created a partnership to make CIPS Marketing the exclusive distributor of Vida en el Valle, as part of a TMC conversation program.[9]
