It just gets worser and worser


This article is a pretty grim account of the status of one of the largest newspapers in the country.

(A hat tip to two frequent, if anonymous, blog readers for the link)


By the way the paper is one of the properties of the Newhouse family, the same company that owns the Flint Journal and the rest of the Booth chain.
Notice two things: This is round two of the buyouts and it got worse and the famous Newhouse lifetime job pledge will not survive the proposed sale of the newspaper. Also the medical coverage is far less than what Journal employees received in last year's buyouts.
