>> the kinds of businesses that reached their customers by advertising in alternative weeklies

Thanks Barack!

Last year they sold their radio station WFNX to Clear Channel for $14.5 million. (It's now a dance station, Evolution 101.7). The schadenfruede came from the fact that the eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil corporation Clear Channel (aka Cheap Channel, but many of their stations do quite well running cons. talk including Rush) was the buyer. So much for "Occupy" radio!

I think the thing that croaked the Phoenix is the same thing that’s killing the Post Office, the internet. It’s life more convenient, but less intimate, less personal.
