Ridings named CEO of America’s Newspapers


Dean Ridings will be CEO of America’s Newspapers, a newly launched newspaper association, effective Nov. 11, the association announced.
Ridings served for two decades as president and CEO of the Florida Press Association. He managed five state media associations and Intersect Media Solutions, a $40 million for-profit enterprise providing marketing research and media solutions to regional and national clients. He also initiated new forums and events, most notably hosting debates for state- and national-level political office.
“Dean Ridings brings a passion for newspapers and an experience in association management that will propel the launch of America’s Newspapers as a relentless advocate and voice for the newspaper industry,” said Chris Reen, the inaugural president of America’s Newspapers and president and publisher of The Gazette in Colorado Springs.
America’s Newspapers, the association formed from the merger of the Inland Press Association and Southern Newspaper Publishers Association, was ceremonially launched October 6 at its inaugural annual meeting in Chicago.
Vetted Solutions, a Washington-based executive search firm, managed the national search for the first CEO of America’s Newspapers.
