Another major newspaper bites the dust: Seattle Post-Intellingencer goes online
The Seattle Post-Intellingencer says it will print its last edition on Tuesday, ending a 146-year run. The paper’s owner, the Hearst Corporation, said the P-I will become the nation’s largest daily newspaper to shift entirely online. “Tonight will be the final run, so let’s do it right,” publisher Roger Oglesby told the newsroom. Hearst’s decision to abandon the print product in favor of a Web-only version is the first for a large American newspaper, raising questions about whether the company can make money in a medium where others have come up short. - From kirotv.com
