Honolulu Star-Advertiser launching Maui edition

The Honolulu Star-Advertiser is launching a weekly Maui edition, the paper announced. It will have the whole Sunday Star-Advertiser paper plus an eight-page section filled with Maui-related news material.

The edition is aimed at filling “the void for Valley Isle newspaper readers after the Maui News ceased publishing a Sunday edition in July,” according to the paper.

The Maui News published its last Sunday edition on June 30.

The Honolulu Star-Advertiser is managed by Oahu Publications, a subsidiary of Canada’s Black Press. In addition to the Hawaii paper, in the U.S., Black Press operates Sound Publishing, with 49 titles in Washington’s Puget Sound region, and in Alaska.
