MLive Media Group says it will move the printing of its
eight papers to Ohio and shutter its printing
plant outside of Grand Rapids ,
MLive reported. The change will take place Oct. 5.
The printing is moving from a facility in Walker to Cleveland ,
said Tim Gruber, president and chief revenue officer of MLive Media Group. The Walker building will
probably be put on the market, MLive said. The Cleveland plant prints The Plain Dealer.
Seventy-one jobs will be lost. The employees will get a severance package,
MLive said.
Advance owns MLive and The Plain Dealer.
Another Advance paper, Staten Island Advance
and SILive.com,
is moving its news operations and print. The building and property on Fingerboard Road in
Staten Island will be put on the market and
the newsroom will be in a leased space, the paper reported. The printing
will happen with other Advance papers in Montville ,
New Jersey . The paper didn’t say
how many jobs would be impacted.
