RISN Operations Inc., also called Rhode Island Suburban Newspapers, is a privately owned publisher of three daily newspapers and several weekly newspapers in the U.S. state of Rhode Island. The company was founded by Illinois-based newspaper executives in early 2007 to purchase the Rhode Island holdings of Journal Register Company, which it did for $8.3 million.〔Grimaldi, Paul. "Journal Register Co. Sells its Nine R.I. Newspapers". ''The Providence Journal'', January 27, 2007.〕 In 2013, RISN acquired the ''Yuma Sun'' and the ''Porterville Recorder'' from Freedom Communications.〔(Yuma Sun under new ownership )〕 ==Officers== The corporation's first two named officers, Melanie Radler (president) and Roland McBride (vice president and treasurer), were both Illinois residents connected with Conrad Black's former Hollinger International newspaper chain. Radler is the daughter of F. David Radler, a former Hollinger boss; McBride is chief financial officer of Horizon Publications Inc., the company Radler founded after he left Hollinger.〔 McBride also served as CFO of American Publishing Co., a former Hollinger subsidiary, and was said in an indictment to have aided Black's and the elder Radler's misappropriation of $5.5 million in connection with the sale of some newspaper properties from Hollinger to Horizon.〔Miner, Michael. ("News Bites: David Radler's Daughter" ), ''Chicago Reader'' online, January 31, 2007. Accessed February 16, 2007.〕 As of March 2007, the company had not yet announced a local headquarters. Its incorporation papers list a Delaware address.〔(Rhode Island Corporation Information: R.I.S.N. Operations Inc. ), Rhode Island Secretary of State's Office.
