Goodbye P.I.

Seattle used to have two newspapers. Last week, after publishing since the Civil War, the Seattle Post Intelligencer called it quits. Well… technically they’re still going to publish. Online only, and with a small fraction of the staff. The fact that their website looks pretty much like it did while they were failing doesn’t bode well for the future.

The last sign left that the P.I. ever was are the newsstands littering the city.  Unlike the free paper boxes, which at least fill up with trash, the P.I. with it’s $.50 cost is doomed to lonlieness until someone bothers to tear it free of it’s physical existance.

It's In The P-I

Goodbye P.I.  No longer is it in you.
