''The Call'' is an American daily newspaper published seven days per week in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, covering northern Providence County, Rhode Island, and some adjacent towns in Massachusetts. Originally an afternoon newspaper known as ''The Evening Call'', the Woonsocket paper has published seven mornings a week since the 1990s. It is owned by RISN Operations Inc. ==History== ''The Evening Call'' was founded in 1892 by Samuel E. Hudson and Andrew J. McConnell, who predicted that "the people of Woonsocket will support a paper devoted to their local and business interests," "essentially, a paper for the people." Hudson's and McConnell's descendents—Buell W. Hudson, Charles W. Palmer, Andrew P. Palmer and Nancy E. Hudson—ran the paper for nearly 90 years before selling it to Ingersoll Publications in 1984. Ingersoll in turn was bought by Journal Register Company in 1989. In 2007, a new company, RISN, formed to purchase Journal Register's Rhode Island properties, including ''The Call''〔Frechette, Aaron. "Under New Ownership". ''The Call'' (Woonsocket, R.I.), February 6, 2007.〕 and systematically fired a large number of employees. 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「The Call (Woonsocket)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
