It’s In The “New” P-I!
The Seattle metro market has always been a competitive place. For years, the Seattle Times and Seattle Post-Intelligencer competed in their own separate worlds, the P-I with the
morning paper, the Times in the afternoon. Even when the two papers merged in a Joint Operating Agreement to conserve on costs and reduce the necessity of operating two
publishing plants, the two papers maintained their personalities.
Now, however, the face of competition has changed. On March 6, 2000, the Seattle Times closed down their afternoon edition and began publishing only in the morning, in direct competition to the P-I.
Ken Bunting, Executive Editor of the P-I, visited the BBRC exclaiming, “I love competition, and competitive newspaper markets.” He must be ecstatic! More

The Youth Services Committee Chairperson needs your help! The list containing member names for service on
this committee has been lost – eaten by the dog. If you signed up for this committee, please contact Scott, so he can reconstruct his committee for the
coming year. If you don’t, it will be rather lonely at the top!
