It was announced today that Hearst Corporation's other troubled publication, Seattle P-I, will roll out its final print publication tomorrow. Publisher Roger Oglesby just made the announcement on behalf of Hearst. The online version, seattlepi.com, will remain up and running.
Before we get to what esteemed journalists have to say about SF Chronicle's impending closure -- when discussing "micropayments" and other snake oils with a SFSU journo professor this morning, KTVU's Ross McGowan looked even more crestfallen than usual -- SFGate commenters have much to say about why, exactly, the Chron might have to shut its doors. Their reason? Commie, homo-loving sons-of-guns on the editorial staff.
This just in: the SF Chronicle is (practically) up for sale. Word is that "if they don't sell it, they'll shut it down." No deadline communicated yet.
