Johnston Press, the challenged UK publisher with 230 local newspapers, is finding small digital gains as CEO Ashley Highfield begins implementation of his multi-platform turnaround strategy. Digital revenue in the first six months of this year grew by 8.4% to a still-small £10.3 million ($16.2 million) (announcement). That was thanks partly to a quarter more online property classified sales after Johnston outsourced its service to Zoopla last year.
