I heard what went down today. Sucks, sucks, sucks. This business has gone from the only thing you've ever wanted to do to the just having to hope you hang on to the end. You'll be OK, big guy. See you Sunday.

I thought The Times Picayune was going to be Top Golf.

In more important news, Bob Frost retired.


Replaced by some nerd named Josh LeDouche.

The Times Picayune has become a useless rag since it was purchased by that NJ company..

It’s printed in Alabama...

Times Picayune has been hot garabage for the last for the last 5-7, and it isn’t getting better.

Ron that sucks, I always enjoyed you on the radio interviews.

You can post your stories here if you'd like.

But why is Ron no longer there?

Shame if true. He was writing articles a couple of days ago.

Edit: From his twitter in response to the tweet mentioned in the OP:

quote:

Thanks, Ted. First time I've been fired for making too much money and being old.

It’s all about clicks on NOLA.com now. They don’t a crap about the printed news.
