This blog is mainly about the spectacular train wreck at The Sacramento Bee and its parent company, the McClatchy Company. But I also post about current events, the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, politics, anything else that grabs my attention. Take a look around this blog, hope you enjoy it.

Wednesday Jan. 21 -- Got news or a question?
If you have news or a question, leave it in comments. . .
Back in the day, that a local newspaper was the only media, collecting a memorial copy was a big deal. It was bragging rights to have a piece that reflected history.
Now, with more forms of media than can be counted, there's no special value in having a collector's item with the local rag's branding.
These books will be outside the bookstores in no time.

McClatchy Kamikaze Journos Shoe toss update: Some of the guys are unhappy, and they were talking about the bravery of the journalist who threw his shoes at Gary Puritt, the guy who stole their jobs from them. Well, Pruitt deserves it after his illegal buying sprees. What do you expect when you make so many enemies?

I want to know how many trinkets McClatchy sells over the next few days?

There are several references to Obama’s speech being typical Saul Alinsky-like rhetoric.
