Blank Slate Media is the publisher of 6 award-winning weekly newspapers on the North Shore of Nassau County, Long Island, and The Island Now, its news website. The company has partnered with the five weekly newspapers operated by Litmor Publications to offer provide an advertising with a circulation of 38,945 and a readers of more than 16,000. With a separate paper for each community, the group can target readers with the news that is more important to them — news about where they live, where they own a home, where their kids go to school, where they shop and where they go to be entertained. A separate newspaper for each community also allows advertisers to target their market and eliminate wasteful circulation — making us the most cost-effective way to advertise whether you are a business seeking to reach one community or the entire North Shore.
