They are reaping what they have sown for generations.
They deserve to go out of business. If they didn’t reprint the New York Times and Washington Post articles and editorials, they would’t have anything to print at all.
Was this before or after the newspaper implemented the ‘living wage’ that they so avidly support? Fully employer paid health care? Affordable housing for employees? Perhaps if they put up a few more solar arrays, their carbon footprint savings will be enough to offset the carbon footprint of destroying oxygen giving trees and the massive pollution cost in transporting large rolls of newsprint from out of the country...?
Welcome to the world you made, Tampa Bay Times.
Why can’t this paper buy its newsprint from Canada, and there would be no tariff?
Maybe they could cut out some of their nastiest leftist features and opinion.
They should stop killing trees anyhow. /s
News flu. It seems to be spreading. Denver Post, now Tampa Bay. They will blame everything and everyone but themselves. Which is fine as they are doomed anyway.
The leftist Tampa Bay Times was formerly the St. Petersburg Times (aka ‘Pravda On The Bay’).
They bought out their competition on the other side of Tampa Bay, the centrist Tampa Tribune, and closed it down.
Then stuck Tribune subscribers with the Tampa Bay Times as a replacement.
Then raised subscription rates.
Then cut out the weekly TV listings and made them available as a separate publication - at an additional cost of course.
And as the paper gets smaller and smaller it turns more and more to the left.
Serves the bastards right. A more evil employer there has never been.
I used to deliver the Tampa Times in about 1960 or so. A den of thieves and crooks. Nobody but the boss made anything off delivering the papers, the kids were lucky if they didn’t have to pay for papers out of their own pocket.
It was impossible to build new capacity or upgrade present facilities. Wood procurement in the West was shut down to save the G D spotted owl. Add to that, the left’s darling - the unions- raised wages and benefits such that labor was uncompetitive.
Besides that fact print media is dying, let's put the blame for high paper costs (tariffs) where it belongs, on the Left.
disclosure - I worked 30+ years in sales for North American paper makers.
Too bad for Tampa Bay Pravda!
More WINNING!
Tampa Bay Times calls us no less than 5 times a day trying to get us to re-subscribe to the paper. My 13 year old used to read the comics and my dad would do the crossword puzzle when he visits, and the rest went straight into recycling without being read.
Maybe they should try doubling down on Stormy, its doing wonders for CNN.
Politifact is an exponent of this outfit.
Eager to see how this unfolds.
50 positions is about 7% of all employees. The paper has 762 employees at present.
