Paddock Publications, Inc.
 PROFILE
The late Hosea Paddock founded newspaper publisher Paddock Publications more than a century ago with simple goals: "to fear God, tell the truth, and make money." He must have hit on something, because Paddock Publications is still standing and publishing the "Daily Herald" newspaper, which serves suburban Chicago with 27 localized editions and a circulation of more than 140,000. Paddock is expanding with the acquisition of "Reflejos Publications," a bilingual newspaper serving Latinos in the suburbs of Chicago. The company is also a partner in a planned Web portal for the automotive industry (DriveChicago.com, to be launched in the fall). The Paddock family owns the company.
