Holy crap. Just found out that McClatchy is buying KnightRidder. While I’m concerned about what will happen to the 12 papers they’re going to unload, McClatchy is a pretty good company as far as journalist standards go, so hopefully this will be a good thing for the newspaper business in general.
Thank God it wasn’t Gannet.
I sent you a link to this story from the Strib. Looks like we’ll be a one newspaper city.

I don’t think so. Looks like the PiPress is going to be sold to another company or organization, possibly, the newspaper union (which would be awesome).
