Link picks up Jackson city legals
Weekly Mississippi Link, with a circulation of about 3,000, has won the right to publish the City of Jackson’s public notices (the politically correct term for what those of us in the biz know as “legals”) after a protracted struggle with The Clarion-Ledger that began when Mayor Frank Melton vetoed the city council’s original decision to use the small newspaper rather than the large daily. The Jackson Advocate also bid on the right to publish the notices, which mean thousands of dollars in revenue for the winning newspaper.
