Two neighborhood newspapers in the Twin Cities have sold.
Calvin
deRuyter and Tim Nelson of deRuyter-Nelson Publications have sold the Midway
Como Monitor and the Longfellow Nokomis Messenger to Minneapolis resident Tesha M. Christensen,
the Monitor reported.
Christensen
has been writing for the papers for the better part of a decade.
The
ownership change will happen May 1.
“We want to
be reader-centric and make our content — both ads and articles — engaging and
applicable,” Christensen told the Monitor. “ Print is evolving, and we’re
looking ahead in innovative and creative ways. More people are reading than
ever before in the history of humankind, and we want to ensure that local
residents are reading their community newspaper because it is ‘News for You.’”
