Comments: Very Important Story
Great post. The AJC management seems to think that they will get coveted upscale "exurban" readers by sucking up to Republicans. Reporters have told people working in for Democrats politics that the marching orders from the editors is to be twice as careful about anything they print criticizing Republicans as they are with things criticizing Democrats.
That paper's circulation won't go up until they get serious about news again. The people who read and are willing to subscribe to a newspaper want real news, regardless of their political persuasion. Insightful, sometimes controversial, coverage sells papers, not sucking up. The people who repeat the right wing spin about the "liberal media" wouldn't pay for an AJC subscription even if they complete their metamorphosis into a right wing rag.
