BJ 6th in circulation in Ohio

Dayton paper has 54% more staff

Interesting comparisons:

Audited and reported circulation figures.

1.The Plain Dealer – 246,571

2.The Cincinnati Enquirer – 146,511

3.The Columbus Dispatch – 136,023

4.The Blade – 94,215

8.The Vindicator – 45,012

10.      The Lima News – 29,120

So the BJ is 6th in circulation in Ohio, 5,421 lower than the Dayton Daily News, where I was in the sports department as the No. 2 man for 13 years.

Today, the BJ, according to the staff listed on its web site, has 63. The Dayton Daily News, according to the staff listed on its web site, has 97. That’s 54% more staff than Ol’ Blue Walls.

Don’t shoot the messenger.
