The ''Enterprise-Sun'', and its predecessors, the ''Hudson Daily Sun'' and ''Marlboro Enterprise'', were daily newspapers covering the city of Marlborough and adjoining town of Hudson, both in Middlesex County, Massachusetts. The combined paper ended in 1995, replaced by two weekly newspapers -- the ''Marlborough Enterprise'' and ''Hudson Sun'' -- and the west edition of the ''The MetroWest Daily News'', all of which are owned by Community Newspaper Company, now part of GateHouse Media. == History == Thomas Hayden began publishing the ''Daily Enterprise'' in 1889, one year after beginning it as a weekly. Across the town line, the ''Hudson Daily Sun'' was founded by William H. Murphy in 1902. The Marlborough paper went through minor name changes, adding and dropping the words "Marlboro" and "Daily" in its name, in its century of publication. ''Enterprise'' owners Dustin Lucier and Charles H. Toby bought the ''Daily Sun'' in 1922, but the combined Marlborough newsroom continued to publish two separate newspapers until 1993. Grace Mada Lucier, Dustin's widow, sold the paper to the rival ''Worcester Telegram'' in 1969.〔 In 1984, the papers were transferred to Beacon Communications Corporation, a chain of a dozen weekly newspapers in western Middlesex County, which was purchased that year by the family-owned ''Telegram''. In 1986, control passed to out-of-state interests for the first time, as the ''Telegram'' was sold to Chronicle Publishing Company of San Francisco, California. In 1993, Chronicle, looking to concentrate on Worcester County, dealt the Beacon papers to Community Newspaper Company, which would soon become publisher of the dailies' most direct competitor, the ''Middlesex News'' (later to be renamed ''The MetroWest Daily News''). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Enterprise-Sun」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
