The sale
was effective March 29. The transaction also included the group’s web printing
operation, Tribune Quick Print, and the advertising specialty sales operation,
which are based in Mobridge. Julie Bergman of Grimes, McGovern & Associates
represented the sellers.
“We wish
Louis well in his new role as caretakers of our communities’ newspapers. As we
have seen what his family has done over the years with the newspapers they
publish, we feel confident our community newspapers are in good hands,” Larry
Atkinson said.
Mullen owns
seven other community weekly newspapers in various locales.
