Mark, I did work for Copley in Elgin where I spent more than 23 years, left when I was ad director. Bob Wall was the last AD I worked with in Waukegan and now he's with the Sun Times group working out of the Aurora office. Although I haven't talked to him in probably 4 or 5 years.It's too bad the enitre Copley empire was run into the ground...once upon a time, long, long ago it was a pretty good operation.
Hello! You're my first friend. Delighted to "meet" you. My company has a substantial newspaper chain in the southeast and are having difficulties keeping certain papers above water.
Could be. I've been in the magazine business for years and years (under a different name, of course, as it's a high profile position). The business sure has changed....
