Steven Smith Business Quotations

After careful consideration by our senior management team and board of directors, we are making the strategic decision to establish two independent companies, positioning each to better focus on its core business and deliver greater value to our shareholders.

In most markets, a successful business model allows for both suburban publications and a large daily newspaper, under common ownership, to work in tandem rather than as separate units. I believe this realignment will allow both the Journal Sentinel and CNI to better serve our readers and advertisers with one cohesive management team and a shared vision for future growth.
