The long-rumored deal, finally announced today, is noteworthy if only because it shows GCI hasn't completely abandoned adding newspapers to its portfolio.
Here's where I need Gannett Blog readers' help: By any available metrics -- a multiple of revenue or circulation -- how does that $73 million compare to other deals? High? Low? About average? With all the talk about McClatchy's perhaps overpaying for Knight-Ridder, it would be interested to know whether the sale of the The Advocate in Stamford and the Greenwich Time set new benchmarks.
