• Newsday: Long Island-based regional daily with mature digital subscription paywall and classifieds. Provides a comparable subscription/community-newspaper monetization benchmark.
• Tribune Publishing: Owns a portfolio of regional U.S. newspapers (e.g., Chicago Tribune, Daily Press). Comparable as a mid-size regional/news chain that monetizes via digital subscriptions, advertising, and classifieds/public notices.
• Lee Enterprises: Large U.S. operator of local newspapers (e.g., Buffalo News, St. Louis Post-Dispatch). Provides scale-driven comparability on subscription, advertising, and digital-only operation models across many community titles like Enid News & Eagle.

Direct peers
