Today I have made the decision to step aside as chairman of Schwartz Media and step back from day-to-day operations.

I am extremely proud of the company I have built and of the titles that make Schwartz Media the country's leading independent news source.

I have full confidence in the senior team at Schwartz Media, who will lead the company from here.

I am stepping back to give space to the next phase of growth and excellence.

A new chief executive will join in the new year, adding to the team already in place.
