“I don’t know about this paper and the truth is, I never read it and won’t miss it but the trend is disturbing. It’s the smaller pubs with local appeal that will feel the pain of the public distrust and hard economic times...”

On target. The scummy liberals have destroyed print media in this country. Try to start up a print publication and the people and advertisers will immediately assume it’s a leftist publication.

It will take a ton of money to start up a publication and run it with few advertising dollars to prove to the local community that it’s not a clone of the leftist New York Times.

Not necessarily.
All the hardware needed for a new start up can be purchased at a bankruptcy auction for pennies on the dollar.

As for content?
Content speaks for itself.

Any individual(s) seeking to bring a right-wing POV to print obviously must have a plan and unfortunately the youngsters know not the meaning of "conservatism
Considering the state of the GOP I'm not sure what they'd say or where they'd start.

A startup printer should have to go after both left *&* right with hammer & tong under the circumstances.
Both right-wingers & leftists *love* being told how correct their way is; especially, when [it] isn't.
Honesty's a tough sell regardless the audience, these days.

The Liberal-Socialist quisling mediots won by default since there really isn't much choice anymore, is there.
