This is a major coup for the business weekly, which has been going toe-to-toe with the declining business reporting staff of the daily. Saporta, who wrote her column in the AJC for 17 [...] http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/freshloaf/2008/08/01/73-soon-to-be-ex-ajcers-cant-be-wrong/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/freshloaf/2008/08/01/73-soon-to-be-ex-ajcers-cant-be-wrong/#comments Fri, 01 Aug 2008 18:01:55 +0000 Scott Henry http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/freshloaf/2008/08/01/73-soon-to-be-ex-ajcers-cant-be-wrong/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/freshloaf/2008/08/01/73-soon-to-be-ex-ajcers-cant-be-wrong/feed/ 4 In deference to the obsolete “inverted pyramid” style of news writing that all veteran journalists grew up with, I’ll start with the lede: 73 reporters, editors and other newsroom personnel at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution applied for the paper’s most recent buyout offer and all 73 were accepted.
