Bob Strasser, the publisher of the Oak Brook Business Ledger, a newspaper that serves the suburban Chicago market, writes about the differences between business news for the suburbs and business news for downtown.
“Chicago’s daily newspapers have slashed their business reporting budgets, resulting in a dramatic shortage of suburban news coverage. There are now far fewer reporters to cover a wider market and weekly newspapers have taken up only a small portion of the slack. In contrast, The Business Ledger remains fixed on providing what our readers want. That won’t change.
“My job as publisher of The Business Ledger is to safely take my company through the same uncharted waters of change in which we all currently wade. The Business Ledger has been a guiding beacon for the businesses we serve.”
