    People at some of the papers who have been bought out still qualify for unemployment. I'm not completely sure how that works, even though I'm glad they're getting the extra money...

    Think it has something to do with the job disappearing, not being filled, etc. Downsizing leads to unemployment, and you can get benefits once whatever your severance was runs out. That's my reading of the tea leaves anyway.
