Eye on The Record

On July 6, 2016, Gannett, the nation's biggest newspaper chain, paid the Borgs $40 million for North Jersey Media Group (The Record of Woodland Park, Herald News, NorthJersey.com, (201) magazine and 50 weeklies). Stephen A. Borg, publisher for a decade, oversaw the biggest downsizing ever. Local news declined, errors mounted and most employees were denied raises. Gannett replaced Editor Deirdre Sykes, revised The Record's website and redesigned the print edition, cutting another 350-plus jobs.

More important things to do

I had more important things to do this morning than read The Record of Woodland Park, but did manage to skim it. I'll be posting my critique later in the day.

I did notice that two of the three front-page stories appear to have been filed by Star-Ledger reporters.

And is the massive amount of Page 1 space given to low home values supposed to alarm readers? The ones who are upset are greedy real estate people and bankers, and home owners who were dying to cash in on the grossly inflated prices of the past.
