Black daily readies ad campaign
Article Abstract:
Conrad Black's daily newspaper still has no official name but it reportedly has an ad campaign on the works. According to sources, the campaign for what many are calling the National Post, will probably start on the first or second week of September 1998 using radio, outdoor and some television or backlit billboards in Toronto. Black exchanged the Hamilton Spectator, the Kitchener-Waterloo Record, the Guelph Mercury and the Cambridge Reporter, for the Financial Post and $150 million in cash. Advertisers of the former Financial Post will reportedly get the same environment in the new daily, and maybe more ad space.
