Cars.com, Homescape, Apartments.com, RentalHomesPlus, and HomeGain aren’t immune from the dip in ad revenue. Classified Ventures LLC which runs those sites is now valued at $338 million down from $382 million in December 2007. Classified Ventures is owned by McClatchy, A.H. Belo Corp., Gannett Co., Tribune Co. and The Washington Post Co. All this according to a 10K filed by McClatchy that Peter Krasilovsky sifted through. Krasilovsky also points out that CareerBuilder is also slightly down.
