e.Republic, Inc. is a Folsom, California-based media company "with ties to Scientology".[1][2] It publishes Government Technology Magazine, a publication covering the role of information technology in state and local government,[2] along with three other publications.[1]
In November 2009, the company purchased Governing Magazine from the Times Publishing Group.[3]
e.Republic is listed in the directory of World Institute of Scientology Enterprises (WISE).[4] In 2001 the Sacramento News and Review reported that staff members were made to read Speaking from Experience by L. Ron Hubbard - a claim the company vehemently denies.[5][6]
