Is the Plain Dealer’s daily deliveries to your doorstep
over?
That seems the thrust of a Cleveland Scene magazine
article on the heels of publisher Terrance C.Z.
Egger’s announcement that he will retire from the newspaper early next year.
Advance Publications, which owns the PD, has
gone to 3-days-a-week delivery of its printed newspapers in sister newspapers
in Michigan (Ann Arbor News), Alabama (several papers),
Louisiana (New Orleans Times-Picayune),
New York (Syracuse Post-Standard)
and Pennsylvania (Harrisburg Patriot-News).
Managing
editor Thom Fladung and editor Debra Simmons dodged the question when they
announced Egger’s impending department at a hastily called newsroom meeting.
