Just another trick by the Old Media to increase unemployment before the election.

" The list included Fred Bruning, a feature writer and, until recently, the vice president, editorial in the Graphics Communications International Union, which represented the company's unionized journalists."

Hmmmm.

"Unfortunately," said Jansen, "It was necessary to lay off six people in other departments and eliminate their jobs."

They probably laid off the only 6 conservatives who worked at the paper.

There's no Pravda in Pravda. Except in this case, New Yorkers don't have to buy Pravda, they have a choice.

Sources at the paper said the voluntary buyouts included 17 editorial people.

Well, I can understand why they are targetting the editorial people. Don't really need to pay someone to do editorials or edit copy at Newsday, plenty of free volunteers at the DNC to help out with that, and it won't change the paper's tone a bit.

I was just sitting here trying to remember the last time I picked up a newsday, and I can't remember. That is bad considering the news junkie that I am.

"Unfortunately," said Jansen, "It was necessary to lay off six people in other departments and eliminate their jobs."

I'd like to know why people are STILL using the term "lay off." That term related to people in cyclical industries, usually union workers, who were likely to be re-hired when business picked up. These people weren't "laid off" they were axed, canned, sacked, terminated, or FIRED.

And the good news just keeps on coming!

After all, just how many propagandists does one need, once they know the script by heart? Hell, the lithographer could write the entire rag. All he/she would have to do is change the date & the weather.

"And the good news just keeps on coming"

circulation scandal(s)...news has been out there for months...how come it hasn't been in the headlines like: prisoner abuse scandal, corporate scandal, martha stewart scandal?
