History

The Advertiser News was founded in 2003 by its current General Manager Jeff Bryant. Jeff along with his wife Karen Bryant and Advertising Representative David Hancock were the driving force in creating and publishing the newspaper. The very first edition was published in October 2003. At the time the newspaper was a tabloid and was printed every two weeks. The newspaper was actually started in the attic office space of local Spring Hill attorney Amy Cross.

In June 2004 The Advertiser News Group was formed as a holding company and started a sister publication called Brentwood Life. It was followed five months later by the first publication of the Franklin Life in November 2004.

The Advertiser News Group was purchased by Stephens Media in July 2005. Stephen Media also owns The Columbia Daily Herald, and many other publications around the country. Stephens Media is based in Las Vegas Nevada. Most of Stephens newspapers operate in small to medium-sized towns and cities, but the company also owns the Las Vegas Review-Journal, a 186,000 circulation newspaper.

In June 2006, the company became officially known as Stephens Media LLC. Stephens Media LLC is a Nevada diversified media holding company that publishes over 11 daily and 64 weekly newspapers in 9 states, primarily in Nevada and Arkansas.
