Thanks for the link Poly. Says it well. It’s hard to sell newspapers today. They’ve resorted to a focus on defamation imposed to attract political advertising and billionaire influence. Super market tabloids sell. The Shopping News has more distribution and better obituaries. The Argus is no longer regarded as truth, doesn’t reach the general population, and isn’t worth the price. It could soon become the answer for a journalism historical trivia question.
This says it all about our only corporate paper.

The interview in no way seemed even remotely correlated to the published article.
