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."

The Perfect Storm brought to you by the daily newspaper industry. Why the big surprise? This has been going on since Gannett acquired its tasteless, myopic, classless ego. The papers of old...Iowa, Kentucky, and Michigan...mere slivers of their past.
ReplyDeleteThe local community was ignored...local readers...local advertisers. The arrogance has been coming full circle for years.
Payback time. This corporation has sucked for a long time...followed close behind by MediaNews, and McClatchy.
Expendable. All.

The nonsense that Collins got away with...and now Donovan, speaks to the need for transparency. And fairness.
And still no official press release on Gannett's official website. Silence.

It was protection of the kingdom at all costs. It was always about those who were hiding the truth. And some of those players had to pay.
Today a hero. Tomorrow a goat.
