And if so it will be because a white dude is getting rid of him. Jarvis will get 5,000 columns out of that if he can find another writing job. Losing a job as a newspaper writer really sucks because they are dying off and are so few options now.

Just hope the Advocate doesn't replace nola.com with their awful web site.

As Edwin Edwards said when the times picayune bought the states item. “ two wrongs don’t make a right”.

The Advocate's mobile web site sux. Too much spam and pop ups. I guess my local news will be limited to TD: a scary thought.

The times pic once had among the highest circulations in the country. Multiple pulitzer prizes.

And you're right. They stayed during Katrina and told us the version of the story that no one else could.

Sad state of affairs today.

It really is. I know it's cool to hate the media but the death of local journalism will have consequences that will allow horrible things to go unchecked.

Looks like the subscribe button takes you to a page that doesn’t load. That website is a mess.

Truthfully, you can get more news here sometimes and some details you won't see on news sites. You have to sift through some vulgar comments at times, but I've read a lot of things on here first that were later reported from other sources.

Didn't this happen several years ago? The Times Pic building is covered in graffiti and long-been abandoned.
