No more editorials from people who work for our Sheriff's department saying some murders are just good community service.

Where are you getting this news? I can't find a thing and there's nothing referencing it on their web site.

I think sgrizzle parked an intern reading a book in a car outside the publisher's home.

No wait. That was something else.

Channel 2 is reporting it now too.

Their twitter is shut down.

No announcement on website because this isn't a graceful shutdown.

Bets on seeing a paper this week?

A friend who used to work there said last week's issue will be their final one.

Where will the strippers and massage parlors advertise now?

[davideinstein]

Where will the strippers and massage parlors advertise now?

Craiglist.  At least I heard they can advertise there.

A friend of mine read it every week to see what bands was playing around town and at what clubs. Ad revenue must not be what it was.

"Hi Mr. Businessman, would you like to advertise in our weekly free newspaper with a circulation of *insert bull$hit number here* readers?  We can fit your ad right here between Night Trips and this ad for a guy who sells used women's panties from China."

Waste of paper.
