Today we toured The Journal News, where Mary Herschelman and John Galer walked the team through the full process - from reporting local stories to printing and distributing papers for several neighboring towns.

They discussed how advertising has evolved, why strong cashflow and smart money management keep a news organization thriving, and the responsibility of providing unbiased, trustworthy reporting. The team also saw how analytics and readership data guide decisions behind the scenes.

It was a powerful reminder that local news plays a vital role in a community - and that running a business requires accuracy, adaptability, and a deep understanding of your customers.

Thank you to The Journal News for an incredible tour!
