Program note: My blogging's going to be light

[Big cheeses: Gannett's board of directors]

I'll be traveling most of tomorrow to company headquarters in McLean, Va., for Wednesday morning's annual shareholders meeting, where directors will gather to hear from GCI 's owners. I'll do my best to keep up with comments and e-mail during the day, but posts are likely to be few and far between.

5 comments:

  1. It's a long way to go for what will probably be a 45 minutes meeting. Enjoy.

  2. Give them hell Jim. I am sure all eyes will be on you and Dubow.

  3. Ask the Board, why the continued knee-jerk actions that will cause disruption beyond the recovery? And why should't national media companies be settled by smaller profit margins? What about compensation? $7 million for the CEO, $700,000 for the Newspaper Division Pres., and $40,000 for the average news reporter.

    Lastly, customer service to the local communities. Is there anything left?

  4. $40,000 for the average news reporter...I want to work where you work.

  5. $40,000? I thought you had to leave journalism to get paid that much...

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."
