 Shortly after being acquired by CNC, the papers were merged into a single "Enterprise-Sun" in 1993.Later that year, only three years after touting increased space for state news, the paper's new editor dropped the Associated Press wire and began touting "All Local News" as a way to differentiate the "Enterprise-Sun" from its competitors.Despite these efforts, CNC closed the "Enterprise-Sun" in September 1995, reassigning its staff to the "Middlesex News" and the new weeklies.
