View Newspaper Group acquires Sherman newspapers

The View Newspaper Group has acquired the business operations of Sherman Publications, Inc., which includes the publications Lake Orion Review, Oxford Leader, Ortonville Citizen, Clarkston News, Advertiser, Penny Stretcher and Big Deal.

“The Sherman family’s local news legacy, which dates back to 1955, is one we’ve always admired at View Newspaper Group,” said Owner and President Rick Burrough. “We’ve known and worked with the Shermans for many years.

Founded in 2003 by Burrough, View Newspaper Group, which publishes Genesee County View and Tri-County Times, is a locally-owned community newspaper group that now includes 21 community newspapers covering Genesee, Lapeer, Oakland, Livingston, Sanilac, Huron, Saginaw, Shiawassee, Montcalm and Ionia counties. READ MORE
