Like TKC said: Star Going Bust!?!
McClatchy Watch is reporting on some widely noted not-so-secret meetings at The Star as of late.
Hot shots from McClatchy's corporate office have been at 1729 Grand for a few days this week, and it looks like they are having meetings about something serious.McClatchy Watch is a run by a former reporter so he's very strict about entertaining any speculation. McClatchy Watch floats the idea of The Star possibly going up for sale or maybe selling off the new printing operation in dumbass glass building downtown.
Publisher Mark Zieman and Randy Waters, VP of Production, are among those involved in the meetings with the corporate suits.
But everybody is tight-lipped about the purpose of the meetings.
Whereas I just don't care and I kinda have an idea of what's going on . . . More layoffs on the way along with the frightening prospect (to some) related to eventually canceling one of the days they print the historical document people call a newspaper . . . Most likely Monday or Tuesday . . . TKC thinks journalism is overrated and the rare occasion when I'm able to communicate with insiders (always off the record) really provides a greater insight into what's really happening in this cowtown.

-McClatchy Watch is a run by a former reporter so he's very strict about entertaining any speculation-
The journalistic standards of McClatchy Watch and its most prolific commenters make TKC seem like The Wall Street Journal. The bias and bitterness of that blog are unbeliveable to be run by a ex so called reporter.
McClatchy won't be satisfied until every property it owns is ruined. They've got an excellent start on the STAR.
Look at that nasty whore skank giving us the shocker signal. Two in the puss and one up the ass....NICE!!! I personally like to give it to them, one in the puss and two up the ass. Is it me or does that skanky bitch look like a dude with a nice big tit job???? I wonder how Jason likes it?
If RWaters is involved, you can bank on it being the printing plant on the block.
I say we get Funkhouser to buy it, fill it with water, and call it the KC Starfish Aquarium.
mccclatchy watch. home to a bunch of coddled whiners who expect everything to be handed to them on a silver platter.
those former writers have some kind of weird idea that they are entitled to a cushy job with great pay and benefits because they're special. They also believe that the world will collapse if it wasn't for their sparkling talent and noblesse oblige.
a bunch of bitch punks. that's all they are.
Good Bye So Long Avederzane.Good ridance
They were in town to see why the Star is one of the most profitable papers in the chain - still - and how they can adopt some of The Star's ideas to other papers.
Simple, huh? All you had to do was ask.
-But everybody is tight-lipped about the purpose of the meetings.-
That place is obsessed with meetings. Probably a discrepancy in the paper clip inventory. That place owes me hours back of my life sitting through useless meetings.
5:32 is Mike Hendricks in fantasy land.
Wow, look at that dicklock guy. he's as skanky as those two bowling pins.
Tony Just Jealous.

???????
Kevin is a FORMER reporter BECAUSE all he does is speculate.
Looks like old Jase is gettin' some SKANK on his hang-low.
LOLZURZ.
The holding company crew is here to study The Star's success and it is simple. It is because of Steve Paul and his highly informed and informative writing, which reminds one so much of Hemingway. This is especially true when he writes whoring pieces for the Nelson Atkins trying to explain the beauty of Butler Buildings in high end design.

Hey, lack of expertise in their respective fields doesn't stop them from pounding away at a word processor. A million chimps will write the bible eventually.
One's ability to advance at the Star is directly related to one's ability to stab coworkers in the back.
No mention of McClatchy Watch is complete without a shoutout to Wyandotte County's own John Altevogt-Kevin's main sidekick. A guy so vicious, well the LJW does a good job describing him--

John seems to be a fervent in his use of the word "Nazi" to describe others and a big booster of the Catholic faith.
Two problems with that.
The Catholics headed by the Pope walked hand in hand with those guys during WWII and they kept their mouths shut to the atrocities that the Nazi's were perpetrating. They also didn't have any qualms helping the Nazi's crush people of other religions during the war. Not to mention their collusion with the Communists during the Cold War in Poland and East Germany.
Secondly his constant use of the word "Nazi" to describe people he doesn't like is in clear violation of Godwin's Law. Look it up.
