Baltimore Examiner closing

Published



Clarity Media Group Chief Executive Officer Ryan McKibben met with employees of the Baltimore Examiner this morning to inform them that after several months of unsuccessfully seeking a buyer for the newspaper, Clarity Media Group reluctantly concluded that it had to close the publication. The last edition will be published on Sunday, February 15th.

McKibben explained that a key business assumption behind launching the Baltimore Examiner was that strong revenue synergies could be developed because of its market proximity to the Washington Examiner.  “Unfortunately,” according to McKibben, “ those additional revenues did not materialize to the levels we had projected.”
