Owners of The Advocate have purchased @NOLAnews / The Times-Picayune from Newhouse.

The newspapers will eventually be merged into a single news organization, The Advocate’s publisher tells staff in New Orleans.

For some reason I thought they were already under the same ownership. Sweet, I look forward to having to dodge a paywall on NOLA.com now

Interesting. So a newspaper that less people are reading spent more money to buy something else less people are reading.
In the old days, this would have been seen as monopolistic. But now nobody will give a shite.
I updated my advocate bookmark to wafb the other day. So meh, let them have their fun.

NOLA.com is trash

I just wish either one could develop a website that’s worth a shite.

Both are pure garbage.

Damn. Unreal how in such a short time shite went to shite

I bet the conversation went like this:
"Mr. Georges, too many people are reading our website."
"OH?! Well then put some paywall in there. That'll change that up..."
One Month Later.
"Mr. Georges, now nobody is reading our website..."
"Hmmm.. Well then let's buy the Times Picayune, since nobody is reading that either."

No, it was owned by a New Jersey based company and printed in Mobile...
Would’ve been better if they let Benson buy it when he wanted to..
It nice to see it locally owned again..
