Founded in 1908 by Jude Kinkaid with Pat Gallagher the Philippines Free Press was taken over soon afterwards by Manilla Times editor R. McCulloch Dick whose vignette portrait adorns the stationery's letterhead. Following the Philippines liberation from Japan at the end of the Second World War the paper returned with vigor and came to be regarded as one of the most influential voices of the country. With half it's writers consisting of readers and subscriber to the paper the Free Press tackled every significant event and exposed graft and abuse in public office. Indeed the paper was frequently charged with libel by those whose actions it exposed in its columns. The paper's ownership passed on to F. Theo Rogers following R. McCulloch Dick's passing in 1960. In 1898 the young American F. Theo Rogers landed in Manilla as a 16-year old soldier in the Spanish-American War. With brief absences he stayed on for most of his life.
