Want to end the "lockdown" ASAP? If you are a business owner, tell the media outlets where you advertise that you will be stopping your ad buys for "the foreseeable future."
If enough of you did that, the lockdown would end in a couple days and the story would then disappear from the headlines.
The media in this country only responds to existential threats to themselves.

I know I am putting the Weekend newspaper directly into the trash. And I cannot be the only one.

I hope they don’t expect a bailout.

woo hoo! I notice that TV stations are playing ads for tourism and fast cars - things no one is buying right now. LOL. I love to hear about the death of mainstream journalism. Maybe my prayers will be answered and NBC will fold shop?

The latest Sunday edition of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette was $4 at the grocery store. Too much.

The Trib was (I hope still is) the conservative paper. Salena Zito used to write for it (the Pittsburgh edition no longer published).

If only all newspapers would go out of business.

Actually, they all are out of business... They got bought up by liberals for $1 so they could become propaganda venues. They operate at substantial losses, subsidized by liberals with money that is created for them by the DNC. They have quite the money laundering operation I must say.
To: Red Badger
Trib Total Media used to publish a paper in Pittsburgh (Tribune-Review). It had a conservative opinion section and covered the local area much better than the Post-Gazette (which is leftist). Richard Mellon Scaife owned the Trib. I would not knee-jerk celebrate this development based on hatred of leftist-papers. These probably are not leftist.
