Jones also forged alliances with key columnists and others at the "San Francisco Chronicle" and other press outlets, although the move to San Francisco also brought increasing media scrutiny. Encountering resistance by his editors to publishing an investigative piece about the Temple, "Chronicle" reporter Marshall Kilduff brought his story to "New West" magazine. In the summer of 1977, Jones and several hundred followers abruptly decided to move to the Temple's communal settlement in Guyana officially called the Peoples Temple Agricultural Project, but informally known as "Jonestown" after they learned the contents of Kilduff's article, which included allegations by Temple defectors of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse.
