No news is good news!!!
This warms my heart. The world can't help but be better off with 500 fewer NYT drones.
"What was most fun was ragging on them when they kept calling trying to get me to come back."
I enjoy the same sport with my local liberal rag paper also. I get to tell them that their editorial positions advocate taking money out of my pocket and that me not subscribing is my way of taking money out of theirs.
Recently, they started sending me solicitations with self-addressed, stamped envelopes. I send them back empty just to make them pay the postage. We'll see how long this lasts.
Another reptile reference. Grrr :/
This i would love to say is Bush's fault. Actually, his virtue.
ahhhhhhhhhh
Here's some good news guys....
Heh heh heh...thanks, Bert, this makes my day.
.....What do they mean "continues"?.....
I read this piece several times to be sure the date was current. I thought the old gray whore laid off a bunch earlier. If so, continuation is correct.

....What do they mean "continues"?.....
I looked it up and on May 25, 2005 there was a layoff of 190 people.
With this cut it becomes nearly 700.
This link says 72,000 media jobs lost since 2000.

Two other rags as well.

ping, with a grin. :-)
Life After Television
In the world of the teleputer, broadcasters, educators, investors, and filmmakers, who thought they could never go broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people, are going to discover they were wrong.
New York Times and Philadelphia Inquirer are probably the most blatantly anti-Bush of the major newspapers. I only read the Times now if it's a freebie at a hotel or airport, or online. I won't pay for their content, and I intentionally avert my eyes at any of their advertisements. Sorry, Punch. You lost me as a customer. Forever.
"I read somehwere this week that Krugman makes over $300,000 a year salary. "
WOW!!! That's something like $40 per lie.
The Company also stated it "plans to manage the staff reductions in such a way that it continues to provide journalism of the highest quality, to function smoothly on a day-to-day basis and to achieve its long-term strategic goals."
"...its long-term strategic goals" must surely include damaging this nation as much as possible, given its America-hating staff. I'd like to see the entire enterprise go down in figurative flames. The paper stinks.
On the bright side, we will see more announcements like this in the future because of it!! LoL!
put some flour in it.
Good news BUMP!!!
