Carrol, Indiana – The Carroll County Comet revealed on Sunday that Heartland Media Group has acquired it.
In a Facebook post, Heartland’s sibling firm Hoosier Media Group CEO Don Hurd announced that he was taking over the newspaper.
Hurd claims that Comet is now a member of their Indiana-wide network of “hyper-local” newspapers, all of which strive to be “highly engaged” in their local communities.
In the Facebook post, Hurd said, “We’re excited about becoming a major player in helping Carroll County continue to grow and succeed.”
Following the resolution of “technical issues” within the organization, Comet publishing will soon get underway.
