That’s it, take charge, be a leader and show the way for so many other bad biased newspapers to go out of business.
Good-bye Star Ledger of Newark, now all you folks who’ve been spreading lies can go get real jobs.
Good. It’s worthless.

Ben Silverman: I’m staying at NBC

This is a wonderful start! I hope it can't find the “buyouts”.
By the way, why can't they just lay off people? What's with the buyouts?
“If a newspaper shuts down in the New Jersey Forest.....will anyone hear it? Or care?”
Positively Darwinian!
Well, it depends on the paper. I write for a small/medium paper, and we are doing fine.
But, many bigger ones are really struggling.
Regardless, I don’t think anybody smart would stay with the business if it starts to trickle down to smaller papers.
Many will go into public relations...the money is much better anyway.
Before closing their doors, you would think they might try just reporting the news, without the bias, to see if they might get better circulation numbers if they didn’t PO half of their readers on a daily basis.
But, no. They will take their bias to the grave with them. They would rather close up shop than just report the news.
Hammer & sickle from corporate offices will be auctioned off separately.
I guess all that’s left to write is this liberal rag’s obituary.
Businesses that go out of their way to enrage half of their potential customers just don’t stay in business, especially when these customers now have alternatives. It’s just that simple.
OHH great good news this Tuesday afternoon
Why “threaten”?
Just go ahead and turn off the presses already!!!
Unfortunately, many won’t learn that.
