The publisher at the Syracuse paper has chimed in today with his paper's actions.
A copy editor must not have noticed (wink, wink) that the lead was slightly buried (about 10-inches down) when the publisher announced 10-day furloughs and an end to the company sponsored retirement system for all the employees.
It never ceases to amaze me that the same news standards that would apply to any other news story (bad or big news up front) is missing from the bad news stories about the newspapers themselves.
The secrecy surrounding newspaper news does not set a good example for the public and private organizations that the newspaper covers.
