Jim and I like to read it too
Jim and I like to read it too - the website frustrates me no end.

41% increase, if my math is
41% increase, if my math is correct.
Charge more for an increasingly inferior product. Sounds like a winning strategy.
Maybe a 41% increase is how much they need to cover all the lost revenue from unsubscribers.

KNS rate increase
Just tried to cancel subscription, mentioned the increase was too much to swallow. They offered a new 6 month rate, good for 18 months, at less than I paid the last 6 months. I took the offer, despite being increasingly unhappy with content.
and for that rate hike, you're getting two less reporters
Don Jacobs and Wayne Bledsoe reportedly laid off (or bought out, unclear) today.
Wow. Who's left? Jamie
(in reply to cwg)
Wow. Who's left? Jamie Satterfield, I guess.
Don Jacobs has been there forever. So has Wayne.
