Some DMN section editors now report to sales managers

They've been busy on Record Street. The paper has formed a partnership with The Ticket:

Norm and the Goose can come out of the closet at long last.

 

I can applaud the DMN for recognizing the year on the calendar -- and all it represents -- by making the strategic decision to partner more closely with their sales division to ensure the success of a business. Welcome to 2009.

Partnering with The Ticket? I'm not sure I see how constant fart jokes, comments that demean women and talking about the local music scene is going to compete with ESPNDallas.com.

As Tom Petty said when Michael Jackson married Lisa Marie: "Elvis must be spinning like a rotisserie chicken."

I'm sure that quote applies to the very-much-alive Dave Smith, wherever he is.

 

All that needs to be said.

 

Excellent image of self-destruction...worth 1,000 words (oh, wait...with deflation, can't really say what a word is worth.)

 

The demise of the DMN and Chicago Tribune is truly heartbreaking. They are complete rags. Embarrassing. How anybody could subscribe to either is impossible to comprehend. They are disgusting rags of what they once were.
