He is just being Donald and was off script. Besides the media treats him unfairly and twists around his statements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">His political handlers insist that if Donald can be taught to tuck in his fangs and stick to the prepared scripts, they can make the face of the GOP sound almost human.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Sign on the Dotted Line for God&#8217;s Sake or Else!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Gannett is urging Tribune Publishing Corporation to sell 11 of its newspapers including the Los Angeles Times and take its $15-per-share offer. There is a warning: If Tribune doesn&#8217;t stop &#8220;delaying negotiations,&#8221; Gannett will conduct a hostile takeover of the Los Angeles Times by circumventing the Tribune board and going directly to its stockholders, according to a<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/investors.gannett.com\/press-release\/gannett-issues-statement-regarding-all-cash-premium-offer-acquire-tribune-publishing\">\u00a0Gannett press release issued last month.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23605 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/cjnotebook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Gannett-logo.png\" alt=\"Gannett-logo\" width=\"200\" height=\"159\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cjnotebook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Gannett-logo.png 200w, https:\/\/cjnotebook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Gannett-logo-45x35.png 45w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>BTW: The $15-a-share offer is good until August. \u00a0Why is that?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">That&#8217;s when Tribune Publishing&#8217;s second quarter financial results will be made public, and if the financial picture of Tribune Publishing is bleak, the offer might go down, Gannett hinted in its press release.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;It is imperative for due diligence to occur soon given the apparent rapid series of changes taking place inside Tribune that may diminish the value of Tribune to Gannett,\u201d Gannett stated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Earlier this year, Gannett purchased the Ventura County Star and 13 other newspapers including the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. \u00a0The Star is located in Ventura County, California, which is next to Los Angeles County. \u00a0Gannett is now eyeing the Tribune Publishing&#8217;s L.A. Times along with 10 other iconic newspapers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Gannett&#8217;s offer might cause the Department of Justice to look at what is at stake for readers, consumers and businesses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"> In March, the feds did just that on a similar newspaper sale. The department announced that they had gone to court to oppose Tribune Publishing from buying the Press Enterprise, located in Riverside County, and the Register in Orange County, California. The newspapers were being sold during a bankruptcy auction involving\u00a0Freedom Communications Inc., which owned them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The feds maintain that this sale would stifle newspaper competition, which is against federal antitrust laws. Also it could raise the price of ads, and those costs will be\u00a0passed down to consumers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Tribune winning the auction would create a monopoly, with 98 percent and 81 percent of all newspaper sales in Orange and Riverside counties, respectively.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The Department of Justice&#8217;s antitrust lawsuit doomed this sale, and this allowed Digital First Media, which owns 11 daily newspapers and more than a dozen community weeklies in Southern California, to buy the Press Enterprise and Register in March.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Digital First Media now publishes\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/losangelesnewsgroup.com\/\">11 daily newspapers, including the Los Angeles Daily News, and more than a dozen community weeklies in Southern California<\/a>.\u00a0The Daily News has a circulation of\u00a0\u200e56,493 daily; 79,646 Sunday in 2014.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Is the Department of Justice keeping its federal eye on Gannet buying the L.A.

Times&#8217; and Ventura Star&#8217;s combined circulation numbers in both counties and lack of competition that remains to be seen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Another problem is what Gannett does with the newspapers it buys. It has a long history of making big profits by gutting newsrooms, ordering the staff to do more with less.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">When the newspaper industry was taking circulation and financial beatings about eight years ago, Gannett&#8217;s profits soared.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/urbanmilwaukee.com\/2015\/10\/13\/murphys-law-how-gannett-will-shrink-the-journal-sentinel\/\">Columnist Bruce Murphy wrote last year<\/a><\/strong>: &#8220;Back in 2008, when the meltdown of print media was still in its early stages, writer\u00a0<strong>Jim Hopkins<\/strong>\u00a0did a story on the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/gannettblog.blogspot.com\/2008\/11\/documents-reveal-double-digit-profit.html\">extraordinarily high profit margins of Gannett\u2019s newspapers<\/a>\u00a0(based on 2007 numbers), with the Green Bay Press-Gazette leading the pack with a 43.5 percent profit margin. Many of the 80 Gannett papers Hopkins had numbers for were making a profit margin of 20, 32, 30 or 35 percent.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-20216 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/cjnotebook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/los_angeles_times_logo-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"los_angeles_times_logo\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cjnotebook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/los_angeles_times_logo-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cjnotebook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/los_angeles_times_logo.jpg 318w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Murphy also stated: &#8220;Those fat profits were achieved by constant cost-cutting and maintaining lean staffs, but in the years since then, as the full brunt of print\u2019s economic demise was felt, the company still slashed its staff almost in half. \u201cFrom 2008 to 2012 Gannett reduced total employment by 20,000 positions out of 45,000 positions,\u201d Hopkins noted. \u201cThe vast majority were aged 45 and up because they were the highest paid.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">This means veteran reporters lose jobs and are replaced by inexperienced journalists who soon find out that newspaper jobs are shrinking as circulations decline and leave the profession. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The community suffers when there is no accountability of public and elected officials or the taxpayers&#8217; money.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">So what Gannett does to the Los Angeles Times newsroom if it acquires the newspaper remains to be seen?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Meanwhile, Gannett is urging Tribune to stop delaying the $15 deal and signed the dotted line or else.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;Gannett continues to believe that the Tribune Board should engage constructively with Gannett toward negotiating a merger agreement that benefits both companies\u2019 stockholders. Gannett also believes it is imperative for due diligence to occur soon given the apparent rapid series of changes taking place inside Tribune that may diminish the value of Tribune to Gannett.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Also, &#8220;Gannett urges Tribune to stop delaying constructive negotiations by insisting on limiting conditions in its non-disclosure agreement (NDA). Gannett is ready to sign a customary NDA for an all-cash transaction of this type that will not have a financing contingency \u2013 similar to the version sent to Tribune in April \u2013 and does not limit its options to submit an offer directly to Tribune stockholders.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Gannett believes that maintaining this &#8220;flexibility is important in light of the continued opposition to Gannett\u2019s offer from Tribune\u2019s Chairman Michael Ferro-led board,&#8221; according to the press release.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The $15.00 per share offer also represents a 76 percent premium to the $8.50 share price at which Tribune recently issued common stock to an entity controlled by Michael Ferro.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Recall Petition<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The robed clown posing as a judge who sentenced a rapist to six months in jail needs to be recalled and retired.
