History
Eagle Newspapers was founded in 1992, joining two long-serving publishers, Manlius Publishing and Brown Newspapers, and bringing hundreds of years worth of publishing excellence together. Eagle Newspapers made its home in Baldwinsville until 1996, when it moved its headquarters and printing facilities to Firestone Drive in DeWitt, New York
Since that time, Eagle Newspapers has continued its dedication to Central New York communities by launching the Oneida Press, Solvay-Geddes Express and Syracuse City Eagle publications, which are available free throughout their respective communities. The Oneida Press, Solvay-Geddes Express and a few other newspapers were discontinued in the mid-2000s.
In 1998, Eagle Newspapers purchased Spotlight Newspapers in Albany, a group of 10 suburban weeklies. In addition, Eagle's main office in Syracuse is the home of Empire Media, which publishes the statewide-distributed Empire Monthly and Empire Education publications.
Eagle Newspapers is also known throughout the region for affordable commercial printing.
In 2002, Eagle Newspapers launched cnylink.com, an interactive website touting the top news and sports stories from Eagle's 15 weeklies, along with classified ads, entertainment calendar, archives, coupons, blogs, photo galleries and links to government and school websites. Since that time, Eagle has launched seven more online properties, including empiremonthly.com, syracuseparent.net, urbancny.com, spotlightnews.com, cdparentpages.com, capitaldistrictyardsale.com and piratecny.com. To maintain those properties and manage the company's website design services, the company formed a New Media division in 2006.
In October, 2009, Eagle Newspapers and Spotlight Newspapers were purchased by Community Media Group LLC. In 2010, Eagle Newspapers re-launched their website under a new name eaglenewsonline.com and opened new offices located at 2501 James Street, Syracuse, NY 13206.
