The Pamplin Media Group announced Monday that the Portland Tribune and more than two dozen of its other local newspapers in Oregon had been sold to Mississippi-based Carpenter Media Group. As reported in Willamette Week, Ross Island Sand & Gravel, part of R.B. Pamplin Corp., has been under fire for its failure to refill the cavernous hole it dug while mining the Willamette River bottom from 1926 to 2001. The R.B. Pamplin Corp., which has a variety of business holdings, had been struggling financially for some time. On the same day, EO Media Group, which runs 15 family-owned newspapers from Enterprise to Astoria, announced it would be cutting staff and looking into new ownership. We discuss these developments and their possible implications with Brent Walth, a long time investigative reporter who now teaches journalism and runs the Catalyst program at the University of Oregon’s School of Journalism
This week, in our 83rd and final show we focus on media bias. Can journalists leave their opinions and emotions out of their reporting? Is it important they do so? And, is it possible? To help us wrestle with this we have Virginia Bruce. Virginia is a community activist who manages the Cedar Mill Historical Society, manages CPO1 in the community Participation Organization system, and publishes a monthly news publication, the Cedar Mill News. and we have Mark Miller. Mark Miller works with the Pamplin Media Group as Editor-in-Chief of several of their publications, including the Hillsboro News-Times, Forest Grove News-Times, and Beaverton Valley Times among others.

Nuestro evento destacado fue una visita de la comisionada del condado de Washington, Nafisa Fai, a los estudiantes de las clases de cuarto grado de la maestra Jansen y la maestra Imada en la Escuela Primaria Orenco el jueves, 10 de marzo. Los estudiantes han estado estudiando la estructura del gobierno de Oregón y querían saber más sobre lo que hace nuestro gobierno local, por lo que sus maestras organizaron una visita virtual con la comisionada Fai. La comisionada representa al Distrito 1, que incluye Beaverton, Aloha, Cooper Mountain y Reedville. Los estudiantes hicieron preguntas como «¿Cómo consiguió su trabajo?» y «¿Cuál fue su primer trabajo?». Además, los estudiantes tenían curiosidad por saber sobre las leyes o políticas en las que ella influyó, como la prohibición del tabaco saborizado en el condado de Washington como una forma de evitar que los niños tengan acceso al tabaco. Los estudiantes se sintieron inspirados por el arduo trabajo que la comisionada Fai realiza para ayudar a su comunidad.
City Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty slammed a city contractor shown displaying a pro-police emblem while on the clock — but said there was little she could do after the company declined her request to remove the symbol.Hardesty released a statement on the matter after a photo surfaced on Twitter showing an Oregon Concrete Solutions-branded truck with an emblem of the “thin blue line” flag affixed to the front driver's side panel.The truck was parked near a sidewalk expansion project on Southeast Hawthorne Boulevard near 32nd Avenue on May 13 when the photo was snapped, Pamplin Media Group has learned.On May 27, Hardesty confirmed that she was aware of the issue, but said her ability to respond was limited, despite being the elected official who oversees the transportation bureau.Join your host Sean Reynolds, owner of Summit Properties NW and Reynolds & Kline Appraisal as he takes a look at this developing topic.Support the show (https://buymeacoff.ee/seattlepodcast)
While 71 percent of Americans believe that their local news outlet is doing well financially, local news organizations are actually struggling against declines in circulation and advertising. Over 2,100 newspapers have closed over the past 15 years. In our connected age, there is an abundance of news and opinion coming at us 24/7. It's all covered in minute detail, and we are free to share it and our opinions on the matter. But missing from that collection of trivia and substance is news of what is happening in our own backyards. Local news about a tax increase or a zoning decision is rarely of such interest that it trends nationally, but it has an outsized impact on the everyday lives of residents in small towns and city neighborhoods. When local newspapers fail, these communities are often left without any news organization to care about, watch over, and report on the actions of the county commission, city council, or the local school board. Our guests this week are local journalists Chas Hundley and Mark Miller. Chas is the Editor/Publisher of The Banks Post and The Gales Creek Journal. He grew up in Gales Creek, establishing the Gales Creek Journal after high school. He's since gone on to launch a small media company with publications covering far west Washington County and the Tillamook State Forest. Mark Miller works with the Pamplin Media Group as Editor-in-Chief of several of their publications, including the Hillsboro News-Times, Forest Grove News-Times, and Beaverton Valley Times among others. The Pamplin Media Group is a media conglomerate owned by Robert B. Pamplin, Jr., operating primarily in the Portland metropolitan area. Pamplin owns 29 newspapers and employs over 200 people.
Independent Journalism is a critically important part of maintaining a democratic society. Unfortunately, it seems that media has become increasingly dominated by a handful of major corporations and technology companies. In many cases, local journalism is the only remaining bridge to create an independent voice. Doug and Mark talk about the dynamics of local journalism and its importance to the community's overall health. Doug's business specializes in partnering with companies and non-profits to capture overhead cost savings without layoffs to fund growth and strengthen financial results. Schedule time with Doug to talk about your business at www.MeetDoug.Biz [Music] [Introduction] Welcome to the terminal value Podcast where each episode provides in depth insight about the long term value of companies and ideas in our current world. Your host for this podcast is Doug Utberg, the founder and principal consultant for Business of Life, LLC. Doug: Welcome to the terminal value podcast. I have Mark Garber with us. Mark is the chief publisher for Pamplin Media Group, which is a local media chain, I think you'd say for the Portland metropolitan area. And Mark and I are here today to talk about the importance of local journalism, not just to the Portland area, but really to pretty much any area. Mark, welcome to the show. And thank you for coming on. Mark: Thanks, Doug. Glad to be here. Doug: So tell me a little bit how has the pimply Media Group been, you know, how is the vault? Everybody wants to talk about COVID. But just in general, the, you know, the technical turmoil, the technology turmoil that's been happening for the last 15 years. How is this impacted? pamphlet? Because, of course, it's a diversified set of newspaper news publications, but there has to have been an impact. Mark: Oh, yeah, the technology, as you know, dramatically changed what we do. And local journalism. And you know, it really goes back, Doug for 25, 30 years. If you think back to the very beginnings of, of online content, and newspapers, actually, were some of the first entities to jump into online news. You know, I started publishing news online. Doug: Yeah. Mark: And so we were really competing with ourselves for a number of years in terms of giving our product away. Doug: Yeah. Mark: Online while we were still charging people to read it in print. So but you're right, that is really accelerated. I'd say, you know, since you know, the mid 2000s. Doug: Yeah. Mark: It's really changed the newspaper world. And we actually, with our 25, local newspapers, we have more people now, who read us digitally than who read us in print, we still have, you know, hundreds of 1000s of people read us and brand. Doug: Yeah. Mark: But we have more than that, who read us online? Doug: Yeah. yeah, that's, and yeah, I mean, what are some of the adaptations even making I mean, because, you know, I think, you know, of course, we'll get to the importance of the local journalism, because I obviously think it's important because I subscribe to the local journalists, and, you know, and to the, I actually do the all digital all access package, to subscribe, not just to the Portland Tribune and the Newburgh graphic, which is where I live, but also the broader Metropolitan papers, just because I think it's really important to understand what's happening in the different local communities. Just, you know, that tell me a little bit about, you know, just kind of a about the adaptations that Pamplin has made to, you know, to stay in the game. Mark: Yeah, and I'll try to not get too too technical in what we do. But obviously, it's changed our entire workflow as far as how we, how we distribute the news. Doug: Yeah. Mark: And so, you know, in the old days, where there was a daily newspaper, or weekly newspaper, or twice weekly, whatever the frequency was, I mean, everything was geared toward meeting a...
