Dead tree media in Philly going the non-profit route
« on: January 26, 2016, 05:42:26 PM »
The Philadelphia Inquirer (along with the Philadelphia Daily News and Philly.com)  are going the non profit route (officially),  as they no longer earn a profit.    So I guess the morons think they can make a go of it as non-profit.   Whatever.   

Though getting out of paying some forms of taxes will maybe buy some time.   I imagine it the main reason why.   

Any bets on how soon they can start getting tax payer dollars (aka like PBS, NPR)? That may be the biggest reason.
