    Did Colina sell to Carron or the other way around?

    one sided journalism; say it aint so.

    watching your neighbors 'bun' up, because the house hot and they don't have aircondition, priceless.

    What you mean by merged? Do you mean that the Tribune owns the Guardian?

    Or have a Tribune affiliate bought a good percentage of the Guardian? Either way that is not good.

    While I think it is not illegal, it does not bode well for competition and different views. I am not claiming that the Tribune is not ethical, only that IF the Tribune own The Guardian, both newspaper would have the same editorial point of view. I do actually think it might help The Journal sales!

    Right, I heard this story on 102.9 news. Lets see what I remember. Don't get pissed if I get it wrong but the news comes on again at 7.30 on channel 12.

    Eileen Carron will be CEO, I think thats what I heard, Alexiou and Ferguson will also have a post and Roger Carron has a one as well.

    One of the papers will become a tabloid in the near future. For the time being they will still be seperate. The staff were notfied today.

    I agree, its time for The Journal to step up, it is way to drab. They should pay the newspaper vendors more to push their paper as one hardly sees it on the street.

    This would be a perfect opportunity for the Journal to step up its game.

    According to Wendell Jones, this is a blessing for him and he is applauding the Tribune for the 'coup'. Calls his paper the little David.

    If it is anything like the colina mergers in the past this comming together will take about 3-4 years. Nothing to worry about they will be operating separately a long time.
