    You don't want anything to do with this. The old Courier News basically doesn't exist. It's a branch of the Home News Tribune.

    Morale is horrendous among HNT employees, worse for the ex-Bridgewater people. Get a job at Starbucks.

    The publisher, who had only been on the job for a year or so, recently resigned. Skip Hidlay, editor of the Asbury Park Press, is the acting publisher.

    No one should interpret this as good news.

    That is shocking. How does a LITTLE phony like Skippy get promoted. He basically ran the Press into the ground and the staff out the door. I heard they weren't too sad to see him leave Cherry Hill. It just shows what a scuzzy company Gannett is that they put people like Skippy in positions to ruin the product and as an added bonus the employees lives!
