He could never work for AOL.
AOL. LOL!
You got that right. I kind of felt sorry for the guy. He was probably in some 3 inch cube, making minimum wage telemarketing for various companies.
Short sell. Investors panic when they see shorts piling up.
This baby needs to drop to zero.
The Times loves to be in your face, too. Pointing out on the day AFTER the 1996 election that the Dims had won by coopting GOP issues. The other day, a headline about the house that was blown up, saying that if the walls could talk, they might tell secrets (it was the location of an early spy den). Jokey jokey jokey. Until the family finally forces Pinch out.
This seems to be a reflection of a trend in the newspaper industry (due to forms of new media), rather than anything specific to the times. See the comparison chart with two other leading newspaper publishers.
The Times do have the biggest percent slide, but perhaps that is because they are the most "old media" of the bunch.

If a few thousand freepers did this simple action this weekend, and a few thousand new freepers, friends and relatives each following week, we will have a terminal impact on the NY Slimes acts of sedition. Please send this how to your blogs, friends, relatives and email lists. This action will serve as a cannon shot across the bows fo the other Dinosaur Liberal Fish Wraps re sedition will not be tolerated any more.

Want to smash the NY Slimes?
How many of us own mutual funds which own NY Slimes stock and even worse have increased their NYT holdings this year. NYT investment by a mutual fund company is a terrible investment re the dollar loss in Stock value the last 2 years. Those investments are an attempt to keep the NY Slimes afloat with our mutual fund $'s. Now it is very evident that the NY Slimes is an agent and abettor of the al Qaeda Serial Killers. The Slimes is endangering the lives of our families, friends, innocent Americans and every warrior of ours. Go to this link to see if your mutual fund owns NYT. http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/invsub/ownership/ownership.asp When the MS Money stock home page comes up, enter NYT into the search area and hit enter and the following screen will show up re ownership of the NY Slimes stock: The New York Times Company: Ownership Information
Highlight the Mutual Fund Ownership and hit enter. If thousands of Freepers, whose mutual funds own shares of NY Slimes did the following:
We might have a lot more impact than trying to boycott companies which sell to the elite liberals of NYC and advertise in the NY Slimes. |
Thanks for the pingski.

Standard & Poor's Downgrades New York Times Co. to "A-" From "A" on Challenging Environment
NEW YORK (AP) -- Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its long-term corporate credit and senior unsecured debt ratings on New York Times Co. to "A-" from "A," citing continuous challenges in the newspaper sales environment and additional spending related to New York-area printing facility consolidation plans.
The agency also lowered the company's short-term corporate credit and commercial paper ratings to "A-2" from "A-1."
"New York Times' financial profile is weak for the ratings, and improvement is not expected until the company finishes construction of its headquarters in the second quarter of 2007, and the plant consolidation project in the second quarter of 2008," Standard & Poor's said in a statement.
New York Times, which in addition to its flagship paper also operates the Boston Globe, International Herald Tribune and 15 other daily newspapers, said Tuesday it plans to sublease its facility in Edison, N.J., and consolidate New York-area production at its newer plant in College Point, Queens.
The agency said it may lower New York Times' ratings again in the future depending on what type of progress is made in reducing its debt to EBITDA measure, following completion of the headquarters and plant consolidation.
Shares of New York Times dropped 11 cents to $22.01 in midday trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
"Just wait til the costs of building Pinch's pleasure dome kick in. Ah...that sound of falling equity."
'That building is killing them. As well it should. It was a vanity project from the git-go. The Times just didn't need it, but Pinch wanted a pretty building to work in. And now it is going to cost him everything. Richly deserved. Stupidity should be punished severely. At least Pinch will have a pretty building to throw himself from the top of when it's all gone wrong.'
Years ago when I was working on my MBA, one of the professors discussed the deadly Pyramid Syndrome of CEO's and board members.
It is like an autonomic triggered self destructive syndrome. They subconsciously know that their business has seen its best days and may be ready to start the path to the buggywhip cemetery.
So they decide to build a modern day Pyramid to leave their mark on life and history. They focus so much energy and finances on building their pyramid, their company will often a severe if not fatal hit.
If you are working for one of these companies going through a pyramid building death throes, you should be looking for a new job.
And just think. they shuttered a press and fired a bunch of blue collars to save money for to spend on Pinch's Phallic Symbol...
"And just think. they shuttered a press and fired a bunch of blue collars to save money for to spend on Pinch's Phallic Symbol..."
Hopefully some union thug boss will get to read your response above. That is the reality of Pinch's Phallic Symbol Pyramid, which is being "erected" for his enjoyment and so called mark on history.
I honesly can't even believe it trades that high.
How's about that? All the smart-a**ed liberals screwed up bigtime. Can it get any better?
"How's about that? All the smart-a**ed liberals screwed up bigtime. Can it get any better?"
It will get better for our side every week until these left wing funny farms, posing as great newspapers start to really fold up and go to Buggy Whip Hell.
Bravo! A lyrically written allegory for life that easily surpasses Howie Raines' opus.
Heh---Buggy Whip Hell-----back to the future. Is Pinch ready?
Down, down to hell; and say I sent thee thither. - Shakespeare.
I can't believe the first mention of buggy whips didn't occur until post #50 ,, that is exactly what the Slimes is , a buggy whip factory in 1910 ,, other notable buggy whip manufacturers include Kodak (who uses real film anymore other than for x-rays?) ,, their motto should be "yesterdays news tomorrow!" ,, I just love the first chart posted that clearly shows highly elevated volume as the price tumbles,, no hope for this turd ,,, SHORT SHORT SHORT! Institutional ownership is quite a high percentage of outstanding shares,, they can't allow this to hurt their performance numbers forever and the chances of a squeeze are almost nil as no-one in their right mind will see newspapers as the future..
It was one of those lectures that stays with you as it covered the history of old pyramids and the new ones at that time.
Sadly, I'm seeing this in so called non profits who did great things decades or even 10 years ago. Someone convinces the non profit founder/founders that they need a big new expensive building and a large paid staff to do the job that volunteers and a few paid staff people did. Once this happens, their time of great work for the various communities starts to decrease until they blend in with the so called establishment, they replaced for a decade or so.
