I get my news online. Does the daily newspaper print daily recalls?

Is it safe [not foolproof] to think that when a food recall occurs the first to hear about it is the grocery store's headquarters who immediately contacts the appropriate store/stores to pull the product.
I am not an expert but my understanding is that they notify all of the stores that purchased the product and that it would in fact be pulled from the shelves. The recall issued to the general public is for those who have already purchased the product.
