U.S. Local News Net Gets More Financing

  • December 24, 2009
U.S. Local News Network wants to roll out local news sites across the country. So far, CEO Neil Senturia told Paid Content the startup received $1 million in new funding and expects to raise another $800,000 within the next month-and-a-half; the company had already secured $2 million in backing over the summer. No word on who is bankrolling the effort. Senturia initially founded the San Diego News, later unveiling sites in Riverside and Orange County, Calif.
