Graydon Carter: Editing Newsweek Would Be A Completely Hopeless, Thankless Task
Well, at least they kept the Fe, Ca, and Zn editors.
ROTFLMAO!
This is big news!!! I have found some of their headlines in the print edition to be pure biased propaganda. They have always managed to put the USA Today proudly on display in newstands and in the machines so that they can be seen by all passersby. The intention (when coupled with the biased headlines) was to affect people's thinking...even if those folks didn't buy the USA Today. If their print editions disappear it will be a very good thing.

Gannett should hire kids straight out of high school to fill their editor positions — the editor of my h.s. paper was better than the clowns they employ for big bucks

How the press let us get in the mess were in
Apparently Gannett's management are a bunch of RACISTS!
mmmmm, I feel a tingle run up my leg!
Translation: less money coming in from advertising as we sink further into the quick sand:
“focus less on print ... and more on producing content for all platforms.
Translation: While lay offs are definitely not because of bias, were even willing to try playing grade school musical chairs as a solution rather then fix our obvious bias:
“The newsroom instead will be broken up into a cluster of ‘content rings’
Huh? I can't think of anything ONLY blacks of any sort should be tasked with doing.
Gannett is racist.
I work for the big “G” and they are far from racist. Diversity is highly looked upon there.
great news
The print edition is not disappearing. In fact, we are in the process of adding additional print sites across the fruited plain to cut down on distribution costs.
CNN is likewise imposed on viewers in doctor's offices, waiting rooms, excercise clubs, hotel lobbies ad infinitum.
Get rid of the captive audience and both would be MUCH diminished.
May they all RIP, especiall TIME!
