$2,000 FOR $14,000 BENEFIT AND YOU PAY FOR IT!

 $2,000 for a “death benefit” and YOU pay for it?

Hardly an incentive for dying. Thanks to David Black.

David Black of Black Press, through his underling subsidiary Sound Publishing,  is offering to let BJ retirees BUY a $2,000 death benefit to “offset” the $14,000 death benefit promised on our retirement days that were washed away by the BJ bankruptcy filing.

How generous!

At least the Federal Pension Guarantee Corporation will make sure that David Black doesn’t take away our BJ pension so that we can BUY one for 14.3% of the value of the one we have. Thank God for small favors, huh?

$2,000 death benefit can’t even bury your big toe! Hell, the $14,000 barely will cover most funeral/burial costs.

It was a black day when David Black bought the BJ. The building is gone. The JSK soul is gone. The remaining remnants, doing a stout job under incredibly difficult circumstances, are on the 7^th floor of a once-abandoned Goodrich building.

From tires to a tired ravishing of a legendary empire!

The Toronto Star, where Black once “graced” its halls, owns 20% of Black Press.

John Shively “Jack” Knight inherited his father’s Akron newspaper that was deeply in debt during the Great Depression and built an empire worth $200 million at his passing with the largest newspaper chain circulation in the country!

David Black took a successful BJ and drove it into bankruptcy and left town to sit on his yacht.

JSK was quality. David Holmes Black is a POS.

Black gives Canadians a bad, smelly name.
