Former Rhinoceros Times publisher William Hammer on Facebook:

Today, at the request of my brother, I signed over the rights to the name The Rhinoceros Times and to the website rhinotimes.com to a company called Snap Publications. The way I see it, the only reason any company would want those rights would be to use them. I have no involvement in this whatsoever but if my brother is involved, we know it’s going to be a top-notch, hard-hitting newspaper with an irreverent sense of humor and will beat the socks off of anything the News and Record does or ever hopes to do. Welcome back Rhino.

Stay tuned.

Update: Roy Carroll confirms he is behind Snap Publications and he has indeed purchased the name and Web site.

Will be interesting to see where the N&R runs this in tomorrow’s paper.
