2x Ebitda for a monopoly. 7% yield. Nuff sed.

Only speculation of a take over bid at a price north of the close today could justify this jump. Plan to sell first and ask questions later. The price is not likely to stay up here that long.

The recession has ended. Revenue will return to newspapers as more want ads are placed, more homes are placed on the market and auto dealers start to repost ads to attract more confident consumers. Despite it's heavy debt load, LEE continues to show it is one of the better operators with strong free cash flow. With a focus on small market, they will continue to generate profit (ex items).

LEE is a highly stable, well managed, good performing company with newspapers in almost entirely small, town markets where the newspaper is the lifeblood of the community. Investors are going to be fooled if they try to compare this stable, recovering stock to big city newspapers that are in big trouble. I see this stock selling in the $10 - $15 range within 5 years. For now, a good, solid growth stock!
