At least a few folks are ticked off by the paper abandoning its stand-alone biz section and throwing financial news to the back of the first section (LAO). On the Register Blog, Publisher Terry Horne acknowledges the upset, but adds that readers shouldn't "credit our decisions to greed." The Hoiles family, which has a majority stake in the paper, "has agreed to accept dramatically lower performance, both last year and in our projected 2008 business year, Horne writes. “They have refused to force management to take some of the more drastic cost-cutting steps taken by many publicly owned newspaper companies.” Really? I’d hate to imagine what those are. There's no indication how many readers either called or wrote to complain.
