It Could Be Worse; They Could Be The Cleveland Press

The Cleveland Plain Dealer has laid off one-third of its staff. Two decades ago, the newspaper had 340 journalists. Now it's down to 33.

Nationwide, more than 2,400 media jobs have been cut this year - about 26 gone per dayhttps://t.co/K2KlWnGTdZ

The Cleveland Press, The Plain Dealer's only rival, went out of business in 1982.  Disclaimer: I sort of worked for The Press; I was a paperboy.

Now, a serious question: How remote from your readers must you be that you cannot succeed even when yours is the only daily newspaper in the city?
