E.W. Scripps Co.



Kenneth W. Lowe is the CEO of E.W. Scripps Co..

The E.W. Scripps Company (NYSE: SSP) is a media conglomerate founded by Edward. W. Scripps in 1878, when he launched The Penny Press newspaper in Cleveland.

Scripps publishes 20 daily newspapers including The Commercial Appeal in Memphis Tennessee. The company also owns broadcast television stations and Scripps Networks operates a portfolio of popular lifestyle television networks, including Home & Garden Television, Food Network, DIY Network and Fine Living.

On October 16, 2007, E.W. Scripps announced that the company's board has approved a plan to separate Scripps into two independent parts. The new E.W. Scripps Company will continue to hold the local newspaper and broadcast television properties, and the new Scripps Networks Interactive company will take control of the cable TV networks and Internet shopping services. The company expects to complete the separation process by mid-year 2008.

Scripps and MediaNews Group jointly own the Denver Newspaper Agency, which runs the business operations of the Denver newspapers the Denver Post (owned by MediaNews Group) and Rocky Mountain News (owned by Scripps).

Also in Colorado, Scripps and MediaNews Group are 50/50 owners of Prairie Mountain Publishing, formed in 2006. Prairie Mountain Publishing (originally called the Colorado Publishing Company) owns and operates a number of Colorado newspapers including the Boulder Daily Camera, Colorado Daily, Broomfield Enterprise, Fort Morgan Times, Sterling Journal-Advocate, Lamar Daily News, Akron News-Reporter, Brush News-Tribune, Burlington Record, Julesburg Advocate and Estes Park Trail-Gazette.

Scripps' United Media division syndicates and licenses over 150 comics and news features including Peanuts and Dilbert. The company also operates the Scripps Howard News Service and Shop At Home Network, a nationally televised home shopping service.

The E.W. Scripps Company is traded on the New York Stock Exchange and is controlled by the Scripps family through a trust established by the founder in 1922. The company had total revenues of $2.51 billion in 2005.

I have been watching HGTV for 10 years and it's all because of Paul James The Gardener Guy. You need to add him back the the Saturday morning rotation. He has inspired me to try new things in my garden. I watched him 1st thing on Saturday and then went to the nursery to buy it what ever it was he was talking about that morning. I have never met some one that makes gardening fun. You need to older hosts (over 40) on because they are the ones with the knowledge and experience and passion. I love all his guests he has on also. Please keep Paul around for a long time and please add some more "G" in HGTV. Thank you, Kim

Twice, your station WEWS has mentioned that there were eight (8) Presidents of these United States from Ohio. Correct me if I'm wrong, there were only seven (7) Presidents that hailed from this state! Some people think that President Cleveland was from Ohio. Wrong! He came from the state of New York. Thank you.

I, Jesha Miller have a Petition to Impeach President Bush on Capital Hill awaiting either Congressman Brad Ellsworth or Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi to take to the Floor, at which time I, Jesha Miller will initiate the impeachment procedure. The charges will be aiding & abetting a criminal from Justice & the Constitution warrants his impeachment under Article II, section 3 of the Constitution. I have executed my Constitutional Right # 925 under the 1st Amendment to recieve coverage & Mizell Stewart refuses to write an Article on this. There is a Federal Crime involved which is against the peace & dignity of the U.S. & is at war with Democracy pursuant to Title 18, section 243. I will now file suit against him & the company if I'm not contacted to do an article on this within 2 days in Federal Court for media bias & refusing your responsibility to inform the public of the federal crime & the denial of the guaranteed rights under the Bill of Rights.

You lack sufficient gardening shows. When I first started watching the Home and Gardening Network there were many wonderful gardening shows. Now there are just a few. And I can't believe that the only time I can watch Paul James the Gardener Guy is early Sunday morning. Other favorites are no longer available at anytime.
