History

The company is owned and managed by Joe Renna and his wife Tina Renna. The company has grown around their first newspaper Around About Peterstown which they founded in 1998. They've expanded their business model to neighboring towns, with the media company, which was founded on January 29, 2021, acting as an umbrella for their various holdings. The company specializes in what they call "Hyper-Local news" and have a self reported monthly circulation of 200,000 copies of their 30 newspapers. The newspapers are free of charge and financed by advertisements locked at a $100 maximum per edition. The company seeks to provide news on local topics, be it local elections, library developments and town hall meetings, while also giving local residents and businesses a platform to share information and commercial ventures. [1] Due to their platform, the company has been involved in changes to local school systems, including the Thinking Classrooms concept supported by Governor Phil Murphy, which seeks to phase out traditional mathematics teaching, [2] as well as support for non-electronic extracurricular activities in elementary schools.
