NYTimes.com: Could Times sell Boston Globe?
April 6th, 2009Posted by Laura Oliver in Editors' pick, Job losses, Newspapers
Parent firm the New York Times Company will close the Boston Globe unless staff unions agree to pay cuts and pension scheme changes, according to reports.
An ultimatum was delivered to union leaders last Thursday.
The company needs to save $20 million from The Globe.
Update: But, says Newsosaur’s Alan Mutter, reports of the Globe’s demise are exaggerated.
