Still open from what I know in talking with their managing editor. It's not a bad gig for someone who can tolerate a small-town atmosphere, being a one-man show twice a week and a relative cub in the business. If I could afford to move out there on the up-front cost, I do so quickly.
It's a little further out than that and it's not a bad small town. I worked in Breckenridge in 2009 and coming from a big-city background, that was a culture shock.
The kid they hired couldn't handle the cultural shock of living in Graham after living the Metroplex his entire life. I was about to accept that position before him, but couldn't financially afford it at the time nor could my wife and I find places to live that weren't too small or too expensive.
