The editor sent an e-mail every journalist on the news desk
announcing there would be an emergency editorial meeting
at one o'clock. I had heard the problems the paper was facing
and I heard one of my colleagues that the paper might be
going to close.Whatever it was, it was likely be bad news.
At the meeting, the editor told us to tell anyone else yet, but
the paper had been taken over by Ronald Morduck. He said he had
only been informed the decision that morning.We were all
so surprised the news that nobody knew what to say. I made
a comment a colleague that it was time to start looking for a
new job.The editor heard this, and finally managed to persuade us not
quit until we had seen what changes would be made.
