''He was a newsman through and through. He was certainly a good busi- nessman, but his heart and soul was always on the news side,'' said Single- ton, who also is publisher of The Denver Post and The Salt Lake Tribune. Scudder, who died in Atlantic Highlands, was a native of Newark, N.J. He was born May 13, 1913, into a newspaper family. Singleton said Scudder James W.

He took over from his father as publisher of the Evening News in 1952 and held the post for 20 years. In 1983, Scudder and Singleton bought the Gloucester County Times of Woodbury, N.J., and later purchased Today's Sunbeam of Salem, N.J., and several small papers in Ohio and California. Their partnership even- tually became MediaNews Group, a privately owned company with newspaper holdings that include the Post, The Detroit News and San Jose Mercury News. Richard Scudder states have combined daily circulations of 2.3 million, making MediaNews the nation's second-largest newspaper company after Gannett Co. MediaNews also owns a television sta- tion in Alaska and radio stations in Texas. New York-based Digi- tal First Media was formed last year to manage Medi- aNews Group and the Journal Register Co. Scudder was chairman of MediaNews from 1985 through 2009. Scudder served in the Army during World War II, earning a Bronze Star.

In California, the state has repeatedly scaled back access to health programs for its poorest resi- dents as it has grappled with multi- billion-dollar budget deficits, including last month's elimination of the Healthy Families insurance program that covered 880,000 chil- dren. Lee said the federal health law is not a poverty program. Subsidies will be available for those who make up to $93,000 for a family of four with an average health insur- ance bill of $14,000 a year, he said. MediaNews co-founder Richard Scudder dead at 99 edge to use writing scripts for a German-language radio station to mislead the Nazis as part of ''Opera- tion Annie.'' He remained with the Army in Europe until 1946, working to help civilians take over newspapers that had been run by the Nazis, said Nancy Conway, editor of The Salt Lake Tribune. She said Scudder was kind of a hero to Medi- aNews editors because he would fly or drive to news- rooms around the country to offer encouragement and moral support. ''When budgets got tight and you were weigh- ing what to do, he was always extremely encour- aging. He and Dean always managed to get us what we needed to do the best we could do,'' said Conway, who is working on a book about Scudder. In the early 1950s, Scudder had a hand in inventing a process to remove ink from newsprint so newspapers could be recycled into quality newsprint, an effort once mocked as ''Scud- der's folly.'' After being approached by a news dealer who came up with the idea, Scudder initially tested the process in his office and home before moving the research to university and laboratory settings, according to the Paper Industry Interna- tional Hall of Fame in Appleton, Wis. Scudder was admitted to the hall in 1995. He went on to found the Garden State Paper Co., which had a mill in Garfield, N.J., that began production in 1961. The firm later opened several other plants and became one of the largest compa- nies in the world to recycle newspapers into newsprint. Conway said Scudder became interested in con- servation issues after working as a ranch hand in the West during college. In 2006, the same year MediaNews purchased four newspapers from McClatchy Co., Scudder said in an interview for a book on New Jersey news- paper history that the future of newspapers was positive. ''We believe it and are proving it,'' he told author Jerome Aumente. ''We wish Wall Street would stay the hell out of it. They (publicly-owned newspa- pers) are run by accoun- tants and lawyers for Christ's sake.'' Conway said Scudder and Singleton seemed so different on paper, starting with the nearly 40-year age difference. Scudder's East Coast family was on the social register and mixed with people such as Woodrow Wilson, while Singleton grew up poor in Texas. But she said they shared a vision that news- papers exist to serve their communities. The
