Co-owner Pete Radosovich on the award-winning Pine Knot News, a locally owned, independent, hyperlocal weekly newspaper covering northern Carlton County with an office in Cloquet – "In a time when traditional newspapers are floundering, the Pine Knot News has succeeded because of our focus on hyper-local reputable journalism. You won't see national, international, or even regional news in our paper unless it directly affects Carlton County. What you will see is traditional, unbiased reporting on local governments, current events, and local sports and features, verified and vetted by professional journalists."
