boring
editYeah but why did people read Hearst papers? What big stories did they break or invent? This should be in a Significant Events section. Did they run any big promotions or contests that originated techniques used today? 100.15.127.199 (talk) 22:25, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Puzzmo
editHearst owns the website https://puzzmo.com, which should probably be mentioned in the page (or possibly split into it's own page). 98.117.240.132 (talk) 03:59, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- I added it under the list of Internet assets. It might deserve its own page as well though. 136.62.158.195 (talk) 04:06, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
"Fitch Ratings" should be "Fitch Group" throughout the page
edit | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Fitch Ratings is a subsidiary of the Fitch Group company, which the Hearst company wholly acquired in 2018.
Recommended Changes:
• "Fitch Ratings" to "Fitch Group" in the "Assets" section.
• The acquisition is mentioned on the Fitch Ratings Wiki page and should be mentioned in the "History" section of the page as well. JerCam26 (talk) 18:03, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

- Hi — Thanks for making the change in the table template. I'm still seeing it as "Fitch Ratings" instead of "Fitch Group" in the "Assets" section of the page. JerCam26 (talk) 14:11, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Hearst's acquisition of Fitch Group is mentioned on the Fitch Ratings Wiki page and should be mentioned in the "History" section of this page as well since other non-media acquisitions are mentioned.
Hearst mention on the Fitch Ratings page: "Hearst owns 100 percent of the company following its acquisition of an additional 20 percent for $2.8 billion on April 12, 2018. Hearst had owned 80 percent of the company after increasing its ownership stake by 30 percent on December 12, 2014, in a transaction valued at $1.965 billion. Hearst's previous equity interest was 80 percent following expansions on an original acquisition of 20 percent interest in 2006." JerCam26 (talk) 14:21, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
