Why Newspapers Matter in a Small Town from Cadiz, OH

Why does a 24-year old purchase a 200+-year-old local newspaper business?

My guest is Bonnie Rutledge. She was born and raised in Harrison County, took a summer internship at the Harrison News-Herald newspaper as she worked through college. Over a three-year period, she learned the newspaper business which helped her step into the role of ownership.

In this interview, I talk to her about how she is looking to refresh the content of this weekly newspaper, the look, and online reach, as well as supporting the community and Harrison County in every way possible.
