<p>This is an interview I conducted with Barb Shepherd, chief executive and cofounder of <em>The West Volusia Beacon.</em> She gives us the inside scoop on all things black, white and red all over. We chat about how a person actually goes about founding a newspaper, and, maybe more to the point, how it is kept in business in the days of digital media and ever-creeping AI. </p>
