326<p>Our Mission is to publish distinguished and profitable community newspapers. Among our overall goals are:</p>
327<p> </p>
328<p>To publish newspapers whose focus will be excellence in terms of news and advertising content, reproduction and service.</p>
329<p> </p>
330<p>To maximize profits consistent with product quality, but in no case less than required to assure long term growth and our editorial independence.</p>
331<p> </p>
332<p>To be fundamentalists in our support of the public's right to know, and the right of free speech and press.</p>
333<p> </p>
334<p>To take a bias in support of the communities we serve: providing aggressive, visionary leadership.</p>
335<p> </p>
336<p>This mission will be accomplished through the teamwork of professionals who are dedicated to truth, integrity, loyalty, quality and hard work. We believe that a community must first know about itself in order to act in its own best interest.</p>
337<p> </p>
338<p>We believe that strong newspapers build strong communities --</p>

360<p>It was March of 1989, and Tom Wood and W.H. 'Dink' NeSmith were talking about the company of newspapers they, along with two other partners, had just purchased. It was called Community Newspapers Inc., a group that N.J. Babb of Spartanburg, S.C., began in 1967 with $3,000 in borrowed money. Now this company of about 40 newspapers in three states belonged to Wood and NeSmith. So what should we do? they asked themselves.</p>
361<p>&nbsp;</p>
362<p>Well, as NeSmith has said often, you have to be a good business before you can be a good anything else. And before you know where you're going, they agreed, you must know where you want to go.</p>
363<p>&nbsp;</p>
364<p>So the two of them sat down and wrote a mission statement for the company. "Our mission", the statement began, "is to publish distinguished and profitable community newspapers." And then they listed the ways to do that: in short, to publish newspapers whose focus was excellence in all areas; to maximize profits consistent with product quality; to be fundamentalists in their support of the public's right to know; to take a bias in support of the communities they served.</p>
365<p>&nbsp;</p>
366<p>Nearly three decades later, a few things have changed at CNI, but the mission statement hasn't changed one bit. "Our Mission" is printed in every CNI newspaper &shy; not just for show, but as a commitment to the readers.</p>
367<p>&nbsp;</p>
368<p>One of the main changes in the company is in ownership. Wood and NeSmith today are the sole owners. They bought out their former partners, Bill Bresnan and Jeff DeMond. And they pared down the number of newspapers from 32 papers in four states to 24 in three states: Georgia, Florida and North Carolina.</p>
369<p>&nbsp;</p>
370<p>Under the present owners, the Athens, Ga.-based company has acquired a number of newspapers, several of which have been merged with existing CNI papers. In September of 2000, the company purchased two dailies, along with a weekly, in northeast Florida from the New York Times Company. They are the Lake City Reporter, the Palatka Daily News, both dailies, and the News-Leader in Fernandina Beach. At the same time, CNI bought the Nassau County Record in Callahan, a paper owned by Tom Wood.</p>
371<p>&nbsp;</p>
372<p>Other acquisitions over the years included the Richmond County Daily Journal in Rockingham, N.C. (sold in 2006); the Sylvania Telephone in Sylvania, Ga. (sold in 2006); The Telegraph of Cleveland, Ga.; The Toccoa Record of Toccoa, Ga.; The Southeast Georgian of Kingsland, Ga.; The Citizen News of Edgefield, S.C. (sold in 2006); Dawson News &amp; Advertiser of Dawsonville, Ga. (sold in 2014); The Elberton Star &amp; Examiner of Elberton, Ga.; The Hartwell Sun of Hartwell, Ga., The News Leader of Royston, Ga. and the Times Courier of Ellijay, Ga.<
372/p>
373<p>&nbsp;</p>
374<p>Through it all, the owners say, success has come with teamwork, just as the mission statement calls for &shy; "teamwork of professionals who are dedicated to truth, integrity, loyalty, quality and hard work."</p>
375<p>&nbsp;</p>
376<p>With that kind of teamwork and a fundamental belief &shy;that "strong newspapers build strong communities"&shy; Community Newspapers Inc. will continue its mission "to publish distinguished and profitable community newspapers."</p></div>                  </div>
