You do wonder if newspapers as we have known them, have a long term future.

It's so much easier to change history when all the news is digital.

Radio, TV, and finally the wireless stream (and of course, greeniac AGW worried about deforestation and C02 from decomposing newsprint) are causing a huge shakeout. But you knew that.

Only way to find out about the new owner:

When I lived in New Orleans in the seventies, the Times-Picayune was distinctly New Orleans. One of the columns was called Lagniappe, which meant "a little something extra thrown in." The people working there knew the city. It was uniquely New Orleans, like coffee and chicory. In a transient society, few people seem to have roots, and there's less local culture and more interchangeable content. No local celebrities, just nationwide celebrities.

Then they’ll try to get you to pay more for a monthly online subscription than you would for the printed edition.
