After cyberattack, The Journal Times is back to full strength

Since Feb. 3, when a cyberattack shut down most systems at Lee Enterprises, the parent company of The Journal Times, teams have been working day and night to bring you the complete newspaper you expect.

Today, we cannot be more pleased to tell you we are back to full strength.

For the past few days, you’ve probably noticed the newspaper has returned to its bigger size. It has more local news, sports and features, and we’ve brought back the Sunday Family & Life section. You’ll find your favorite columnists on the opinion page, and you’ll also see a return of some features we weren’t able to provide during the outage, such as A+.

We never stopped giving you the latest local news, sports and entertainment on journaltimes.com. But many of you have told us that you prefer to read a printed paper. One reader who wrote to us ended her handwritten letter with, “Coffee tastes so much better when you’re reading the paper.”

This outage wasn’t something we anticipated, and the road to recovery has been long. But along the way, you’ve shown the patience and grace typically reserved for a friend. And for that, we thank you.

We read every message of empathy and encouragement. And we read every note of frustration, too. You kept us motivated to move as fast as possible to resolve this issue and get back up to full speed.

We’re pleased to give you the paper you want and deserve, but we’re not satisfied to just return to normal. We’ll work hard to continue to be the best source of local news in Racine County.

Thank you for supporting the The Journal Times.
