Providence Pureplay Puts Bullseye On Daily

If Josh Fenton has his way, he’ll conquer Providence, R.I., by having one foot in the future and the other planted squarely in the past.

Of his Internet pureplay GoLocalProv, he said, “We’re convinced that while the technology allows us to distribute the information, it’s important to be integrated into the community much more like a newspaper was in 1952 than a roll-up, conglomerated news organization does today,” Fenton, the CEO and co-founder of parent company GoLocal24, said.
