PROFILE |
 |
What we have here is "not" a failure to communicate. Morris Communications' small-market media empire -- which stretches from coast to coast -- includes nearly 60 daily, non-daily, and free community newspapers; 26 radio stations; three radio networks; 20 magazines and specialized publications; 26 tourist publications; and two book publishers; as well as online services, outdoor advertising, and printing and marketing operations. Morris has grown through acquisitions, although the company has been selling some newspapers as it consolidates its operations. The firm began in 1945 when William Morris Jr. bought "The Augusta Chronicle," a newspaper founded in 1785. The Morris family owns the company.
