Michael Russell, who helped start the Kansas City Business Journal and Wichita Business Journal in the 1980s, died Sunday. He was 69.
A Kansas City Business Journal story states, “In 1982, Russell and William Worley started the Kansas City Business Journal. In a 2007 interview, Russell said that after having the idea pitched to him and reading a stack of issues of the St. Louis Business Journal , he was hooked.
“Russell and Terry Scanlon created the Wichita Business Journal in 1986.
“The Kansas City Business Journal introduced a new form of business news to Kansas City, with a heavy emphasis on deals and deal-makers.
“‘We were writing things that other people were afraid to write,’ Russell said in 2007.
