The Sierra Star has closed its offices at 49165 Crane Valley Road in Oakhurst, California, the Fresno Bee announced and the Sierra News Online reported (Sierra News Online is not connected to the Sierra Star.)
Fresno Bee Editor Joe Kieta and Publisher Ken Riddick placed a letter to readers in this week’s print edition of the Sierra Star, saying with a fall in foot traffic to the office, “much of the business conducted there can more easily be done online or over the phone, rendering the need for a physical space less important.”
The Sierra Star is owned by the Fresno Bee/McClathy Company.
The letter says that the shuttering of the office won’t affect the production of the Sierra Star’s print edition, which will continue to publish weekly in conjunction with the paper’s online presence.
