The Wall Street Journal Writes Its Own Obituary

Be sure to get today's edition of the Wall Street Journal, to read the page one lead, "Behind the Bancrofts' Shift at Dow Jones." It's a detailed, nuanced story that is long, and thus represents the kind of journalism that is likely to go out the door when Rupert Murdoch takes over.

Not if. When.

It's not every day that a newspaper gets a chance to write its own obituary, so be sure to get a copy of today's Journal.
