Bud’s Jolly Cone Call for appt. 527-4843 (exp. June 30, 2011) compared with a year earli- er. That’s better than the 9.5 percent decline in the first three months of this year. McClatchy publishes The Miami Herald, The Sacramento Bee in Califor- nia and other newspapers. Like its peers, McClatchy has been hurt by a weak economy and a shift by advertisers to cheaper alter- natives on the Internet. The company’s advertis- ing revenue fell 9 percent in April and May. The decline was sharper, at 11 percent, during the first three months of 2011. The company said retail advertising improved because the Easter holiday came later this year. McClatchy, which is based in Sacramento, Calif., also said that its earlier offer to repurchase $65 million of its 2017 senior secured notes will expire on Friday. It plans to release its second- quarter results on July 28.
