...The One-Minute Pundit

These hacks are full of it. What absolute bathos. MOURNING for KnightRidder? How many acquisitions did it take to form Knight Newspapers in the first place? Did anyone cry when Ridder Publications vanished? How much local ownership went six feet under to create another national media barony? What made KnightRidder so special that its former hacks should wear black armbands for the rest of their profitable careers? KnightRidder "died" simply because it wasn't selling enough papers, and it wasn't selling enough papers in no small measure because ITS WRITERS AND EDITORS ARE BETTER THAN THEIR READERS.

Now KnightRidder, rest in PEACE.
