I interviewed with USA Today in Blue Ash, a short while ago. At the end of interview, I asked the interviewer about the stability of this Gannett company. They attempted to assure me all was well. Either they lied or had their head in the sand. I really feel sorry for those that are losing their jobs and have families to provide for. However, this should be a lesson to others with their heads in the sand--keep your ear to the ground and pay attention to rumor mills, grapevine gossip, and other means of getting information about the solvency of your company. Don't let them abandon you--be the first to jump with your parachute--another job. Companies have no sense of loyalty to their employees anymore, so why should you show more than they do. In this economic crisis--self-preservation is yhe law of the masses. Don't get it twisted. Don't you have a family to feed? Bills to pay? Car you don't want repossessed? Rent/mortgage to pay? Or, would you prefer homelessness? Do you really think you could move back in with MOM and DAD after you have been on your own? You know, you really have choices in this climate. Will you sink or swim?

This was going to happen anyway regardless of the recession. Like the story said, all publications are down, but what they don't say is the decline had been going on for years since the interenet took hold. Why would anyone want to pay for a magazine, newspaper, or any other publication, when you can get it right here for free? This is not Obama's or Bush's fault, it's Al Gore's fault for inventing the internet. lol.

Naistewart, you are an idiot. That's the way the magic negro got elected. The entire media was in his pocket. I dumped the enquirer a year ago and read all my news on the internet. Good riddance.

I feel for anyone who has lost their job, but frankly, the paper is a mess. If the reporters, and I use the term generously, can't even bother to do a quick internet search to get some basic background on their story they are covering, then it's little wonder that the internet is creaming the paper business. And I don't count the enquirer's slow, kludgey web page as an internet news source.

naistewart -- you said "Palin" but we all understood you to mean "The Kenyan".

You've done your democrat duty naistewart...you've trash Sarah Palin. You, also, are short on the specifics.
