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.

Sacramento Bee Guild holds Q & A meeting Wednesday, votes on Friday
Having experienced McClatchy management's Orwellian tactics, I think these people are still underestimating how evil Sac Bee management is. Bee management is good at long-range planning, playing out their hand, and cutting capable people while convincing the keepers that the newly laid-off deserved it. The middle managers will do what upper management wants, and they've carried out some pretty slimy plans first and last. I don't share the politics of many McClatchy Watch posters, but I think this is a valuable blog. I prefer the out-and-out, above-board anger often displayed here to the "let's keep this all civil and professional while we stab you in the back" style McClatchy has perfected. McWatch, I don't think you have anything to lose by letting them soak in their own kool-aid at newspapertrails2.blogspot.com. There's just not as much news there anyway. You should know that any criticism your posters lob at McClatchy employees just confirms their martyr complex.
