-- On November 1, 2011, Sound Publishing, a subsidiary of Black Press Group in Canada, announced that it had acquired the Peninsula Daily News from Horvitz Newspapers.

David Black, president of Black Press, Ltd., said, “We have purchased other titles from Horvitz Newspapers in the past and look forward to adding the Peninsula Daily News and its related titles to our Sound group.
