Alden Global Capital makes for a better Hollywood villain — but the scale of local news destruction in Gannett's markets is simply astonishing.

Staff size is down 59% in 4 years.

At its biggest local papers, paid readers are down 77%.

Unexpected trip to Arkansas this past week but our pup Jozy doesn’t mind at all. She got to visit one of her favorite places in the world. Lake Balboa in Hot Springs Village, Arkansas. Photos from 2022, 2015, 2009. Aging with grace ❤️

Such a paradox — traffic can mean safer streets. Don’t like to see this data, but it’s important.

[NACTO @NACTO]

America's roads are largely designed for one thing only: speed. And speed is deadly.

Without traffic slowing drivers down, it's no surprise that even with less driving, 2020 brought a surge of traffic deaths.

TONIGHT’S QUESTION: What’s the best piece of PUBLIC ART you’ve ever seen? Include a pic obviously, & explain why you think it’s the best. #publicart #civicart

[Carlee Alm-LaBar @calmlabar]

@BrentToderian @voxdotcom Interesting given the premise of the piece that they don’t address Eisenhower’s later regret that they were being built through cities. I think Eisenhower believed you could connect the country without disconnecting the cities.
