“We know our audiences want specific content that’s relevant to them and we know clients increasingly want to execute state-by-state in a targeted manner,” said the division’s managing director and publisher, Mark Reinke.
“Combining this new leadership structure with some of Australia’s best editors working on some of the nation’s most trusted mastheads means we are uniquely placed to meet the needs of our audience and our clients in specific markets or as part of a network.”
