Merger discussion

[edit]

Postmedia News service is a property of Postmedia Network. Much of the News article's content is corporate history that would be duplicate information if the content of the Network article was enhanced. Recommend merging Postmedia News content into a section of the Postmedia Network article. Canuckle (talk) 19:19, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, this should be merged. The content is largely duplicated. Wdeleersnyder (talk) 17:39, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Toronto newspaper rivalry in 1950s

[edit]

I'm deleting this sentence because it seems unrelated to Postmedia. The Toronto Star is owned by Torstar, not Postmedia, and the Toronto Telegram ceased publication in 1971, before the 1974 founding of Postmedia's predecessor, Canwest. If there's some reason to restore this sentence, context needs to be added.

"A decades-long heated rivalry and circulation war began in the 1950s and 1960s between the Liberal/left/socialist Toronto Star and the "steadfastly Conservative, Royalist and right-wing" Toronto Telegram, located at Bay and Melinda St. and owned in the early 1950s by a "wealthy deal-maker named George McCullagh."[14][clarification needed]"

No information on previous incarnations

[edit]

There's no information at all on the company's full history, including the Southam and Canwest eras. ViperSnake151  Talk  16:51, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

New acquisitions should be included in the list of media properties

[edit]

Brunswick News was acquired by PostMedia in 2022. This is significant due to the concentration of news in New Brunswick under the BNI banner. Sehrazat2021 (talk) 13:29, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
