The Kansas City Star: Trapped in the vortex
There's nothing like bad news in the newspaper business to make a semi-retired blogger forgo golf on a beautiful Thursday in Kansas City.
But this is really big and unpleasant news for The Kansas City Star.
(I hate to be ghoulish, especially the day after Halloween, but, as you know, it's still the bad news -- arson convictions, super storms and the like -- that prompts some of us to jump out of bed every morning.)
Jim Fitzpatrick's first post since May (welcome back!) gives some insight into how The Star's big circulation drop might affect ad rates.
