Re: Jeff Light being hired by the UT
OH MY GOD. RUN FOR THE HIIIIIIILLLLLLSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!
There's a big problem with the pay wall ideas, which are good in theory.
But the smaller MediaNews papers, all of those in LA, don't have the staffs anymore to do analysis, reviews and investigations.
The staffs produce only the stuff that apparently will be in front of the pay walls.
