Digital BW, The Print

Couldn't agree more... My letter to the editor cancelling my 
subscription is in draft mode as we speak... As will be a letter to a 
few of the largest advertisers in the last issue.

I think this is a big blow if we let it pass...or an opportunity if 
we can raise some cyber ruckus over it.

Let's make sure some of the comments posted here find their way to 
media stations who might be interested.

BWDigital_the_print stages protest over luddite treatment by myopic 
publisher... Etc, etc..
