Desperate times

July 31, 2008 | |

News spread like wildfire today.

It hit the wire services only minutes after we found out.

Some nightside folks found out from friends at other papers before they even had a chance to come to work.

My company announced that it needs 200 full time, non-union employees to agree to a buyout and for our unions to agree to certain concessions by 1 October of this year, or the newspaper will be sold.

Needless to say, spirits are down.
