Wow, how fortunate. Knowing nothing about Stewart Bainum, absolutely anything would have been better than The Sun ending up in the hands of Alden. That would have been the final nail in the coffin.

Sounds like this deal may be falling apart, and the Sun will be bought by the hedge fund after all.

If I worked at The Sun I’d be taking any buyout offer that was on the table right now.

This could also go in the "Recent Deaths" thread.

NYT: The executive who tried to buy The Baltimore Sun plans a rival news outlet

 

Good luck with that. Seriously, that's an extremely tall mountain to climb to be sustainable, but I do hope he succeeds.

So apparently last night was the final time The Sun will actually be printed on presses in Baltimore.  The printing operation is moving to Delaware - it had been printed in Baltimore since 1904.
