Not in a 'regional cluster?' Watch your back

Couldn't help but note the second-to-last paragraph in this story about today's surprise sale of four GCI newspapers to GateHouse Media: "Gannett, which also publishes USA Today, said the sale fits with the company's strategic plan, which favors regional clusters of newspapers."

The four papers and their circulations:
* Rockford (Ill.) Register Star, 65,000
* Observer-Dispatch in Utica, N.Y, 43,000.
* Herald-Dispatch in Huntington, W.Va., 30,000.
* Norwich (Conn.) Bulletin, 26,000.

Please keep your posts focused on Gannett and media-related subjects. Note that I occasionally review comments in advance, to reject inappropriate ones. And I ignore hostile posters, and recommend you do, too."
