Let them eat cheese

Speaking of Bugs Bunny and economic uncertainty, I’ve been meaning to mention the passing of an old friend. Yes, there’s only one left in Albuquerque, one newspaper that is. The Albuquerque Tribune ceased publication this past Saturday. It was one of only about 600 remaining afternoon dailies in the country. Afternoon journalism has been a tough slot for a generation or more, but the Internet is being called the straw that broke The Tribune’s back. The Tribune was a subscriber to Arlo and Janis. I thank the paper for its support and mourn its passing.
