Hello! You're my first friend. Delighted to "meet" you. My company has a substantial newspaper chain in the southeast and are having difficulties keeping certain papers above water.
Could be. I've been in the magazine business for years and years (under a different name, of course, as it's a high profile position). The business sure has changed....
I lived in Chicago from 1960 to 1965 while in graduate school at U of Chicago and later worked there for what is now Restaurants & Institutions. The economy this year must be considerably different from then!
