mcclatchy finished the despoiling of the knight-ridder newspapers that k-r was in the process of doing to itself, and now mcclatchy has ruined itself through avarice and stupidity. it was easy for any of these clowns to make a buck when newspapers were a monopoly; now that it's a competitive business, these people at tribune and mcclatchy and gannett can be seen for the morons they really are. it would be one thing if this were the shoe business, but alas, we can't outsource reporting to malaysia or china; these people have also done serious damage to the public weal.
