Stewart Hops a Canoe to Tidewater
Steve Stewart, editor of The Meridian Star since last summer, is leaving the 15,000-circulation daily to become publisher of The Tidewater News in Franklin, Va. Stewart, formerly publisher of The Clarksdale Press-Register for Emmerich Newspapers, has long been involved with MPA and is a former member of The Board of Directors.
The Tidewater News was recently purchased by a consortium with ties to Boone Newspapers, Inc.
