Government aid could save U.S. newspapers, spark debate



By Robert MacMillan - Analysis

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Connecticut lawmaker Frank Nicastro sees saving the local newspaper as his duty. But others think he and his colleagues are setting a worrisome precedent for government involvement in the U.S. press.

Nicastro represents Connecticut's 79th assembly district, which includes Bristol, a city of about 61,000 people outside Hartford, the state capital. Its paper, The Bristol Press, may fold within days, along with The Herald in nearby New Britain.

That is because publisher Journal Register, in danger of being crushed under hundreds of millions of dollars of debt, says it cannot afford to keep them open anymore.

Nicastro and fellow legislators want the papers to survive, and petitioned the state government to do something about it. "The media is a vitally important part of America," he said, particularly local papers that cover news ignored by big papers and television and radio stations.

cont......



Let em fold.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

it was a scurrilous hit piece, and the NYT ran it just as mccain began to gather momentum. it would be poetic justice if she nailed them for deflation over the whole episode.

oh, and this was as they were ignoring the edwards affair, BTW.

Even better if her payout is the final straw for the slimes, and ensures the slide they're in ends in a granite slab.
