New SV Media, Inc., acquires Out & About magazines in Silicon Valley

April 24, 2015 - SAN JOSE, Calif. - San Jose, Calif., April 24, 2015 - New SV Media Inc., the South Valley's leading publisher of newspapers and specialty publications, has completed the acquisition of Out & About magazine. The monthly joins a family of publications that includes the Gilroy Dispatch, Morgan Hill Times, Hollister Free Lance, Good Times in Santa Cruz and Metro Silicon Valley.

"We look forward to building on Out & About's mission of providing family-friendly information about upcoming events and activities" said Gilroy Dispatch Publisher Jeff Mitchell. "Out & About clearly had become a popular read and had established widespread distribution in the South Valley."

"It complements our home-delivered model well," Mitchell said. "We can now offer comprehensive coverage of our communities at home—and with convenient guides that will be visible in the areas where people go to shop and spend free time."

The publication was started in 2000 by former Bay Area Parent production manager Sylvia Myrvold and sold to Bobbi Jo Palmer Productions in 2010. Myrvold has remained as editor but will be retiring to Southern California to be closer to her children. Gilroy Dispatch lifestyles editor Kristi Parker Johnson, who formerly served as editorial director of a Texas-based magazine and newspaper group that included the Killeen Daily Herald, will become editor of Out & About.

Metro Newspapers, parent company of New SV Media, also acquired rights to the Los Gatos-based My Out & About from Bassi Productions. My Out & About Magazine—Silicon Valley and the Coast began publishing in 2012 and is distributed in and around Los Gatos, Campbell, West San Jose, Cupertino, Palo Alto and other Silicon Valley suburbs. The 30-year-old Metro publishing company is the largest locally based newspaper and magazine publisher in the San Jose area.

"The publication is a good fit because it covers upcoming events and activities and is a free publication, like Metro, while reaching a different audience," said Metro CEO Dan Pulcrano.

Metro purchases Gilroy Dispatch, Morgan Hill Times, Hollister Free Lance and Santa Cruz Good Times

Silicon Valley-based Metro Newspapers has purchased four Northern California weeklies and associated digital properties from MainStreet Media Group. The purchase was finalized, March 31, 2014 it was announced by Metro publisher Dan Pulcrano.

The purchased titles include:
• Santa Cruz's "Good Times," the publication with the largest readership in Santa Cruz County
• Two weeklies in South Santa Clara County—the Gilroy Dispatch and the Morgan Hill Times
• The Hollister Free Lance, circulated in San Benito County, along with the SanBenitoToday.com web service

Good Times was founded by Jay Shore in 1975. Independent Newspapers of New Zealand purchased the publication from Shore in 1988. A decade later, Independent sold Good Times to a Midwestern publisher with 21 papers in Wisconsin, Nebraska and Michigan, and the California publishing group organized under Mainstreet Media.

Good Times will consolidate operations with the Santa Cruz Weekly, which began publishing 20 years ago as Metro Santa Cruz. Pulcrano, who graduated from University of California, Santa Cruz, owned and worked for publications in Santa Cruz before starting the Silicon Valley publishing group.

The three weeklies based at the southern end of Silicon Valley each have more than a century of heritage:
Morgan Hill Times is the oldest continuously operated business in Morgan Hill, and traces its history back to 1894.
• The Gilroy Dispatch was founded by G.M. Hanson and C.F. Macy, in 1868 as the Gilroy Advocate on Sept. 12, 1868.
• The Free Lance, which serves Hollister and San Benito County, was founded October 18, 1873.


Judge Orders County to Release Health Foundation Documents

Today's issue of Metro Silicon Valley sheds new light on how labor groups influence public policy in Silicon Valley

San Jose, CA, May 22, 2013 — The weekly newspaper Metro Silicon Valley has scored a victory for public transparency with Judge Carol Overton's ruling that the County of Santa Clara must release documents on the political activities of the nonprofit Santa Clara Family Health Foundation. Information from the documents appear in today's issue of Metro, and on the SanJoseInside.com website.

The documents, released to Metro on Friday, shed new light on how a recent ballot initiative was passed and how union-affiliated political groups interact with local nonprofits to influence public policy behind-the-scenes. "These are the Pentagon Papers of local politics," said Metro Executive Editor Dan Pulcrano. "For the first time, the public will see how groups here hatch schemes to tap the public treasury, as well as what they say in secret when they think their actions will never come to light."

The foundation refused to provide documents or grant interviews in March when Metro first wrote about a campaign to raise county taxes by a half-billion dollars over the next 10 years. A ballot initiative was approved by voters in November 2012. Directors of nine local non-profit organizations wrote a March 29 letter that attacked Metro's initial reporting on the political activity of two nonprofits as "bad for free speech."

On April 16, Metro filed a request for records under the California Public Records Act (CPRA). SCFHF responded ten days later with a letter denying the CPRA request. "Per the direction of our attorney, the PRA does not apply to the Foundation, as it is a private, nonprofit corporation. Therefore, the Foundation is not obligated to and hereby elects not to produce any records responsive to your Request. The Foundation now considers this matter closed," wrote Board Chair Dana Ditmore.

County officials disagreed, however. Noting that Santa Clara Family Health Foundation executive Kathleen King was a county employee and that the documents resided on county email servers, the county determined that the documents were public records that should be made available to the public. "Our position is they were clearly public records," county counsel Donald Larkin argued at the hearing.

SCFHF held an emergency meeting on on Monday, May 13 and sued the county on May 15 in an attempt to block the disclosure. (The county has access to the electronic records because the Health Foundation uses servers and email addresses of Santa Clara Family Health Plan, the public agency that established and provides office space to the non-profit foundation.)

"The Application is denied," Overton wrote in the May 17 Santa Clara County Superior Court ruling. "Petitioner has failed to establish that the subject records in the possession of Respondent are not public records within the meaning of the Public Records Act.

"Moreover, Petitioner has otherwise failed to substantiate its claim that it will be irreparably harmed unless the Application is granted." Metro was represented by noted First Amendment lawyer Judy Alexander.
