President and publisher of the Anchorage Daily News Ryan Binkley is the oldest son of former state Senator John Binkley (R-Bethel). When John ran for governor in 2006, Ryan, at 27, took over the Binkley family tourism business based in Fairbanks. That business includes the Riverboat Discovery, a gold mining tour, a partnership with a flight seeing company in Girdwood & Juneau, and a cruise port in Ketchikan. In 2017, Ryan and his three younger siblings purchased the Anchorage Daily News, the state’s largest newspaper. Ryan talks about the media landscape in Alaska, the ADN's place in it, and their future.
