      <![CDATA[I can think of some pretty easy cuts:
    
    1. Sneed. Whatever she's paid, it's excessive. It's not from Scoopsville if the regular reporters wrote about it the day before. 
    
    2. Stella Foster. I could easily see why no one wanted to be the publisher or editor that fired Kup, even though his column was pretty well unreadable for a decade. As Stella Foster's column is totally unreadable now, it's a no-brainer.
    
    3. Jennifer Hunter, or whatever her name is. One Paige Wiser is enough, so if you have two, the obvious thing to do is fire the dumb one.
    
    4. Mary Mitchell. There's no compelling reason to keep a bad writer who blames racism for everything, including solar flares and the Cubs losing.
    
    5. Mariotti. Even if the paper was making money hand over fist, it'd be the right thing to do. 
    
    However, Mark Brown, Abdon Pallasch, Carol Marin and Steinberg should all stay.

    In a report about a paper that habitually rewrites City Hall press releases?
    That's rich.

      <![CDATA[It looks like the cuts came over the weekend:
    Monday's business section is exactly TWO items; a PR piece on Rush Hospital, and a Terry Savage column.  That's it, 2 items comprise the whole section.

      <![CDATA[Sounds like reporters and other staff will be paying the price for management's woeful ideas; how many millions were wasted on the awful Red Streak?  The Sunday Sun-Times is also a poor excuse for a newspaper. Cluttered and messy and in desperate need of change.
