Vindicator owner and general manager Mark Brown said Friday The Tribune Chronicle in Warren also is buying the Vindy.com website and will publish a Mahoning County edition under The Vindicator masthead starting Sept. 1
Brown announced on July 5 that The Vindicator would cease publication because of financial struggles just days after the paper celebrated its 150th anniversary.
