Newspapers being in trouble all over the country is not good news. Our local paper laying off staff last week also is not good news.
However, that doesn’t mean that I’m above making a snarky comment…or in this case, snarky graphic.
I read the Bee every morning with my coffee, have little panic attacks if I miss a day, and don’t hate it as much as, say, Joe Sac does, but I did have to laugh at the “scoop” comment on Sac Rag a couple of days ago. For whatever reason, I came up with this idea in the shower this morning.
Combine that with a slight case of hero worship for Jessica Hagy, and you have the above.

Got the honey bee one without the link. You gotta give blog readers more credit than THAT . I’m fairly confident cultural illiterates do not read blogs as a rule.

I love the sketch. Reminds me of how Forrester Research shows emerging technologies. Funny.

Awww, but that Haagen Dazs site is so cute. I couldn’t resist adding the link. Little bee-colored hearts fluttering all about. Adoooorable.
I stand corrected re: my take on your take on the Bee.
Thanks!

We may not see eye to eye on some things, Joe, but I knew you’d come around on the bees.

It’s no secret that the Bee (and McClatchy) are hurting… According to their SEC filings, The Bee’s daily circulation numbers dropped by 13,000 from ‘06 to ‘07
