hopelessly devoted to deconstructing popular culture and conventional wisdom, one blog at a time

THE GLOBE ON THE HERALD: Mark Jurkowitz, who himself is soon to depart his own daily newspaper gig (to go back to the Phoenix, which is another intriguing notion to blog about), wrote about the very current turmoil at my very current employer in Saturday's Globe. Interesting to read someone else's take on the situation, especially since said someone else is writing for the opposition and about to leave them for a weekly paper that itself is in transition. You follow all that? Good. That said, I remain optimistic about where the Herald is heading. We have a chance to lead the newspaper industry into the 21st century. The media landscape is changing all around us. If we don't get ahead of that curve, we'll fall by the wayside. And who wants to see that happen?
