Jorgensons buy Clyde Republican

Matthew and Crystal Jorgenson are the new owners of the Clyde Republican. They purchased the newspaper from Margene Cash.

The Jorgensons have four children, a dog and two cats.

“Following a layoff in early 2014, I was searching for a career opportunity,” Matthew Jorgenson said. “The owner of the Clyde Republican was a family friend and I approached her about buying the newspaper.”

Jorgenson said he had two years of journalism in high school.

“I am now the proud owner of a 100-year-old newspaper,” he said.
