With this issue of the News we have recombined the Queen Anne News and the Magnolia News into one newspaper.
By doing so we are reaching back to the tradition of one paper for both communities that had been the case for decades until late 2003.
While our revenues have continued to grow since 2003, cost increases associated with separate newspapers have kept pace.
Richard T. Jameson, Queen Anne editor, is now editor for both newspapers - which is to say, for all intents and purposes, the one newspaper.
Rick Levin, Magnolia editor, is now associate editor for Pacific Publishing Company Inc. This move will free up Rick's time to write more for the Queen Anne & Magnolia News and its sister weeklies (Beacon Hill News & South District Journal, Capitol Hill Times, North Seattle Herald-Outlook) and will allow us to increase our community news coverage.
This is a good thing.
So, as always, keep those cards and letters and e-mails coming in with story suggestions, news tips, alternative opinions and other feedback.
By returning to where we were in 2003, the Queen Anne & Magnolia News will greet the future from a stronger economic position.
That, too, is a good thing.
