Besides the election of a radical leftist black president, not much has changed since I recorded this in 2006…., Dave Parker – Black&Right.

New Times is facing hard times. The paper is struggling with the same economic pressures that affect the rest of the newspaper industry and I’ve been watching the paper shrink as advertisers migrate to other media. The paper used to be nearly two hundred pages; last summer is was usually 124, the last month or so it’s been 96 and this week’s edition is 84 pages.
However, demographic and and economic trends may not be the the biggest problem New Times is facing–the paper appears to be in serious legal trouble.
