Thanks to neglect and cutbacks, some McClatchy properties are looking like dumps



I've heard reports of several newspapers slashing custodial services, lawn maintenance, and security. The cutbacks are taking a toll.

The above photos show the "employee courtyard" at a McClatchy newspaper, where employees used to have lunch or a smoke. You can see it's dilapidated and unusable.

Can you guess which newspaper? I'll have more photos later today. (Thanks to the anonymous tipster who sent the pics to me.)

It's my guess that the toppled tables belong to the Charlotte Observer. They've had dilapidated, faded, tattered flags hanging on their flagpoles for as long as I can remember.

Good guess, but it's not Charlotte.

This is a stupid post and so indicative of the quality of what is being put our recently.

The garbage outside our office piles up from time to time because we don't own the building.

Unless you can show the picture with the name of the newspaper on the building this thread has 0% credibility.

Didn't you used to be a journalist? Is that what it's come to for you? So sad.

What has no credibility is any of your posts. BTW, answering your own posts is consider tacky. Even with McClatchy.

It's either The Telegraph in Macon or the McClatchy Watch HQ

Looks like a turd world country. No wonder McClatchy supports illegal aliens, they need their illegal Latinos asses to clean up the trash.

I doubt its American flags on the flagpoles. More like the Star and Sickle or the United Nations flags for the Far Left loonies.

...Not nearly as much trash outside McClatchy as inside the building.

Or, don't pay the rent! Please stop making excuses. Garbage has become the watchword of McClatchy.
