The Howe Enterprise
The Howe Enterprise is a local online newspaper for the city of Howe, Texas, in the United States, 10 miles south of Sherman, Texas. The Howe Enterprise was created in 1963 by A.P. "Pop" Sloan. Bob Walker purchased the newspaper in 1966 and ran the company under the Grayson Publishing Company until selling the publication to Jim and Nita Echols. The Echols family then sold The Howe Enterprise to Dale and Lana Rideout. During the Rideout's tenure, they changed the name from the Howe Enterprise to the Texoma Enterprise in 1997. They also stopped printing in 2011 and took the publication online as one of the first fully online newspapers in Texas. The Rideouts held on to the publication until 2014 when it was sold to Monte Walker, grandson of second owner Bob Walker. He formed Grayson Publishing, LLC and changed the name back to The Howe Enterprise. The free publication had 167,745 visits from 80,714 users in 2015 (Google Analytics). [1] [2] [3]
