Kompas (surat kabar)
Setelah mengumpulkan tanda bukti 3000 calon pelanggan sebagai syarat izin penerbitan, akhirnya Kompas terbit pertama kali pada tanggal 28 Juni 1965.[5] Pada mulanya kantor redaksi Kompas masih menumpang di rumah Jakob Oetama, kemudian berpindah menumpang di kantor redaksi Majalah Intisari. Pada terbitan perdananya, Kompas hanya terbit dengan empat (4) halaman dengan iklan yang hanya berjumlah enam (6) buah.[6] Selanjutnya, pada masa-masa awal berdirinya (1965) Koran Kompas terbit sebagai surat kabar mingguan dengan 8 halaman, lalu terbit 4 kali seminggu, dan hanya dalam kurun waktu 2 tahun telah berkembang menjadi surat kabar harian nasional dengan oplah mencapai 30.650 eksemplar.[7]
