Tomahawk Leader purchased by community-focused Multi Media Channels

After nearly four decades in Tomahawk media, publishers Larry & Kathy Tobin have sold the Tomahawk

Leader to Waupaca-based Multi Media Channels (MMC).

 

 

 

 

 

MMC began its work in community newspaper publishing in Denmark, WI, in 1953. Under the leadership

of founder, Frank Wood, the business expanded into other markets. Today, the company remains in the

Wood family, now working with 23 publications and 14 digital channels.

With a solid focus on local news and community engagement, each publication has become an integral

part of the area in which it serves.

With a 132-year history in the Tomahawk community, the Tomahawk Leader has become a staple, along

with the publishers that came before.

MMC will continue on the foundation built by those that worked to educate, inform, and engage the

public through the years.

After so many years at the helm, the community will miss Larry & Kathy fulfilling that role; however,

MMC has a solid commitment to remain stewards of the community.

“Our stewardship will be to continue the Tobin family tradition of reporting hyper-local news to the

community,” said CEO Patrick Wood.

The Tobins say they have been honored to be the caretakers of the Tomahawk Leader for 37 years and

look forward to remaining part of the community.

“We have prided ourselves in providing strong local coverage and we look forward to watching the

Leader continue this tradition. We share a belief in the critical role a community newspaper serves,” the

Tobins said.
