deliver regionalized, local news to a wide and varied audience
throughout and entire state, and under one brand," said

provide a multi-regional digital solution was a natural fit for

continuously looking for new ways to reach more people with timely
news and information wherever they are, while creating unique and
differentiated ways to engage their audience and grow revenues
