Shock! Horror!
Scripps to shutter Cincinnati Post, Kentucky Post on Dec. 31
The decision by Scripps to cease the Post newspapers' publication comes three years after the company was notified by Gannett -- owner of the Cincinnati Enquirer -- that the joint operating agreement wouldn't be renewed. Scripps COO Rich Boehne says: "The investment that would be needed to continue publishing a daily newspaper that could successfully compete in a marketplace with so many media alternatives would be prohibitive."
Comments from the Post editor are here.
I awoke this morning with the news that half of my hometown newspapers will be shutting down at the end of the year. This is not a surprise; the Post was always said to be dead meat when the Joint Operating Agreement between it and The Cincinnati Enquirer -- in which the two papers shared production facilities and advertising staff -- expired in 2007. I guess inside I always wondered if it really would happen.
This is a bittersweet post for me. My first job in newspapers was taking Friday night football scores in the Covington, Ky., office of The Kentucky Post in 1985. I left the next year, but returned as an obituary clerk in 1989. After a couple months, I managed to land a full-time job as a library aide across the river at The Cincinnati Enquirer, where I worked until 1994.
I can tell you that there will be much hand-wringing in Northern Kentucky about the post-Post era (tee-hee). Though the Enquirer beefed up its Kentucky presence a few years ago, there is still some mistrust about their commitment and a longstanding feeling that they're not in it for the long haul. That, plus the fact that I'll bet that The Ky. Post still writes more about Ky. than the Enquirer. It will be interesting to see what happens now. My cousin, who got me that football job and still writes sports for The Ky. Post, will be out of a job come December. I wonder if The Enquirer will swoop in and snatch up some of The Post's people in a credibility grab.

Hello everyone!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For quite a long time, I make money with the help of these programs.
I'm with no money problems now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I'm very close at catching at last a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my web site to get additional info.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of troubles when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in big initial investment.
Now, I feel good, I begin to get real income.
It gets down to choose a proper companion who uses your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the income with me.
You can get interested, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:
