In 2013, The Blade lost $8.5 million and has been losing millions for years. As of now there are no plans that will affect the advertising and news-gathering departments.

Elections have consequences. These union idiots did more than just ask to get laid off. They VOTED to get laid off.

How brain dead do you have to be, to think this guy dealt efficiently with the recession, when nearly 1 in 4 of our workers is out of work? And that doesn’t even address another 25% that are making far less than they used to.

They can get on their hands and knees to crawl around looking for a shovel ready job.

Hopefully previews of coming attractions. The Toledo Blade has been a far left publication at least since the 70’s. Silence at last.

I missed that SNL skit... All I have to say is.... Liberalism, a death cult financed by Business Billionaires whom somehow get pegged as Conservatives by the Drive by Media.

That's about as stupid as a union coal miner voting for Obama.

In retrospect, that is wickedly darkly funny. It reminds me of a passage I read about WWII. The war was nearing an end, and anyone with a scintilla of intelligence knew Germany was going to finally lose. However there was a meeting of a group of German Officers. The Officer giving the speech said something to the effect: "And when we win the war you will all be given great estates in America." Loved it!

It makes about as much sense as any given senior citizen joining AARP.

In light of the VA scandal, a prelude to Obamacare, I wonder if there are any veteran's groups who will endorse any Democrat who voted for Obamacare?
