Total North American newsprint shipments fell 24.4% year-over-year in October.
yepeeeeah!
We had a similar situation at the manufacturing company that I worked for...at first nobody signed up because none of us had ever been thru anything like this...then people began to take the package and whole departments got hit hard with departures...the work still had to be done, but fewer people were left to do it....so morale began to suffer...”survivor’s syndrome” set in.
I feel for these NY Times workers...they’re getting hurt because of their Lefty/anti-American editors....you would think they would try to be pro-American in hard economic times...people don’t want to read that they’re living in a crap country...they want media that stands up for America.
How long will this “death watch” last? Seems they ought tobe
“dead” by now!
The slimes is in its death spiral. What’s that German word that comes to mind? Oh, yeah. Schadenfreude!
“.people don’t want to read that they’re living in a crap country...they want media that stands up for America.”
Lunatics like Sulzberger never listen to reason.
As long as it takes. I rather enjoy the slow, suffering, miserable spectacle. They need to pay and pay hard for what they've done over the past fifty years.
NYT should take a page from Jim Baucus, as to how to make good utilization of their staff.
And yet all they publish is DNC faxes and Democrat talking points.
If they had any common sense it would include the five people manning the “Climate Change” desk.
......they’re getting hurt because of their Lefty/anti-American editors.......
I argue differently.
They are not lilly white All American apple pie eating wonder citizens. They are all, to a person, Lefty anti Americans. They deserve disdain. The world they destroyed is falling apart and they are the ones being covered in the debris
They deserve no sympathy at all.

Love it.
A nice Kwanzaa present for the homo reporters at the Slimes.
True - but VERY well written gussied up, biased, one-sided intolerant, finger-wagging published talking points...
