Wick Communications, based in Sierra Vista, Arizona, will acquire the Arizona Daily Sun in Flagstaff in a move that strengthens the company’s holdings in the state. The announcement was made Tuesday in Flagstaff by Wick CEO Francis Wick, a fourth-generation Arizonan, and Daily Sun Publisher Colleen Brady. Brady will remain publisher, and all employees of the Daily Sun have been offered positions with Wick Communications. The Arizona Daily Sun, the largest newspaper in northern Arizona, originated in 1883 under the name Arizona Champion in Peach Springs. It was moved to Flagstaff in 1891 as the Coconino Sun and was renamed the Arizona Daily Sun in 1946.
