WASHINGTON — The owner of Roll Call is buying Congressional Quarterly in a deal that will bring two well-known publications covering Capitol Hill and Washington politics under the same corporate umbrella.
Terms of the deal announced Tuesday were not disclosed.
The combined company, to be called CQ-Roll Call Group, has no plans to eliminate any existing products or publications.
Roll Call is owned by Roll Call Group, a division of The Economist Group, a privately held company based in London. CQ, currently owned by the Times Publishing Co. of St. Petersburg, Fla., provides extensive coverage of the inner workings of Congress.
