The positive media coverage we have helped the United Association of Plumbers, Steamfitters and Service Mechanics Local 50 generate has been quite rewarding.

Publishing a newspaper comes with unique challenges and pressure to put out the perfect product, especially when you are talking about taking on a 123-year-old institution like The Cleveland Citizen. Trust us.
