Defiant 'til the end

Today the East Valley Tribune announced that come December 31 it will close down. 

I was sitting in class when Becca Dyer got on the phone only to realize no buyer had come forward. Now I'm not going to get all sappy and say "Why are we spending money on a major that is loosing more jobs than the Clippers lose games?" Believe me I was called out on my dramatics once and I don't want it to happen again.
