Deep staff cuts leave St. Cloud Times a 'ghost paper'

Serving a region of 200,000 residents, the paper now has a news staff of two.

 

With falling circulation and a news staff that's been slashed almost to nonexistence, the St. Cloud Times is a ghost of the publication that was once one of the best small daily newspapers in Minnesota.

 

Corporate ownerGannett Co. Incheavily in debt and under pressure to reverse revenue declines, has cut staff to the point that only two reporters remain to cover news and events in the central Minnesota region of about 200,000 residents.

 

Huh.. good riddance. I cancelled our local paper in person, placed all copies on the desk and asked for the editor. Calmly asked if I looked like a conspiracy theorist, that I was unvaxxed, didnโ€™t appreciate his column and walked out. Felt good.
