Big Daily Deathwatch

David Brauer at MinnPost points out the continued speculation over the deathwatch on the big Twin Cities dailies. Some sources say the Pioneer Press will go, others say the slightly larger Star Tribune might succumb to financial wounds or switch to an ultra-lean all-online format. Brauer suggests that both papers are in better shape than the other big dailies that have shut down around the country. In any event, good luck getting a newspaper job in the next five years. The next time they’ll be hiring they won’t even be printing hard copies anymore.
