Student-run college newspaper bought out by Gannett

With no effort on my part, I just became an employee of a major news corporation.

The local newspaper, the Tallahassee Democrat, just acquired the FSView & Florida Flambeau in a swarmy business deal.

The Democrat is owned by Gannett Company, Inc., which also happens to own, among other things, USA Today.

Swarmy, indeed.

But they say the pay will stay where it's at, and everything will be the same. I will still have "complete control," they say.

C-O-N

CONTROL!

In other news, I just got a big resume booster.

(Maybe I can persuade someone up there to get me out to SXSW '07 now.)
