The Wise Words of a Vermont Newspaper Publisher

What’s most interesting about Katharine Q. Seelye’s catch-up piece in The New York Times is her portrait of Connelly as an old-time business model proponent. Albeit from the vantage point of a very small town, where nurturing a print ad base remains more feasible than in many other markets.
