I hate all these companies that have consolidated local media under one massive umbrella. Sinclair Broadcast Group and iHeartMedia also spring to mind.

Gannett pretty much killed the newspaper business in my area. The local paper of a 100k person city only has 3 writers.
Gannett doesn't own the Denver Post, but Alden Global Capital does basically the same shit and the masthead over there has just been miserable in the past few years; luckily we've gotten non-profit newsroom the Colorado Sun out of it--i am tragically lapsed on membership due to my lack of finances--but i can't help but feel for all the places where nothing like that is possible.
thanks for using Leebra!

sorely needed, Gannett might genuinely be the most destructive thing that has ever happened to journalism--and i'm including Rupert Murdoch and the 24-hour news channel in that. entire communities have literally become paperless because they just don't give a fuck about anything but money.
