Jackson Jambalaya

Communist Hedger.

More like State Birdcage liner of Record
The Onion is more informative

Is it really now $2.50 per copy for the weekday print edition?

For all the people working there, Mississippi Today sure doesn't put out many articles.

Person jumps from liberal newspaper to liberal news website. A big who cares

@4:02 Exactly. the CL is liberal enough, but probably not Lefty enough for Pender. He's probably losing his mind right now with all that's going on, but they won't let him publish anything too radical....he quits in protest. Douche Boy Jeff.

Print media is clogging up more ventilators than the "virus".

Glance at the Natchez Democrat.
That once great local paper is begging (way more) than the now massively reduced "Jackson Free Press" weekly.

I don't know anything about this CL fellow, but if he stuck with that sinking ship for this long . . . that says a lot.

Most decent journalists left print ten years ago.

Anyway . . . more power to him.
Better late than never.

BTW, I just remembered the Jackson Free Press is no longer a weekly publication.

Here's a tip for all failing press. If you want to survive stop being such obvious liars and shills for hostile foreign interests. Until then, you can drown in hot piss for all I care.

Now who will Josh use for his dribble at the CL?

Thought he already had a mouthpiece at MT - doubling down there will reduce his attempt to maintain his former pipeline

Pender is far left so he'll fit in well at Mississippi Today. The sports website " The Athletic" laid off dozens of their people Friday. They use some of the same business models that MT uses. Rich people propping up the website. Athletic also requires monthly subscription. As Margaret Thatcher always said: At some point you run out of other people's money to spend.

The CL is a "local" newspaper located in a local domain with nothing worth reading to report. Who wants to pay $40+ a month for a pamphlet of nothing but stale articles from the online version. The only reason I still take it is to help the delivery guy make a few dollars. And that gut is always on time and reliable, so he can probably get a better job doing something else.

Mainstream media is becoming irrelevant as you can get all the information of the day on social media. Most MSM is propaganda anyway. Gone are the days of people believing everything they read or watch. Question everything.

There is a lot of payroll cost without a lot of production at Mississippi Today.

The only news in Jackson is corruption at the Capitol. Then rape, murder, and mayhem in the surrounding warzone.

It would be more entertaining if they would give the inside scoop on what's happening in the hood. Give us the character development behind the mugshots and tragic headlines.

Print journalism....yesterdays news tomorrow.

I would have more respect for Mississippi Today if they just admitted they are a liberal outfit instead of claims to be non partisan. Look at their list of major donors. A long list of liberals. Not sure why Archie Manning and wife support these people.

The best sports writer in Mississippi works at Mississippi Today. Thank you for your work, Rick Cleveland.

I hear that Pender’s first big scoop is a 4 part expose on Andy Lack “How to ruin a news network through grab-assing and sexual extortion”

Pender a liberal? Hardly. I previously worked with Geoff, and he is personally right of center. I believe what you're calling "liberal" is Pender's penchant to play it straight down the middle to the best of his ability and not let readers know where he stands. That's the mark of a true journalist. It's not a journalist's job to show bias toward either side — something that those who rail against much of the "mainstream" media as well as CNN and MSNBC (and rightfully so) seem to either forget or overlook when it comes to Fox News. It is just as much of a problem for journalists to be openly conservative as it is for them to be openly liberal. Pender is old-school enough to know this and gives everyone a fair shake.

It is a shame to see the demise of real print journalism across the country. Part of the beauty of the system was you had a little time to think about what you published vs. the race to beat everyone to the scoop. Then opinion journalism became the norm. That said, I still subscribe to CL for obituaries.

I also thought Geoff Pender was fair in his judgements, and was certainly the best investigator the C/L had. I pay ten bucks a month for the online version, but it still doesn’t compare to this little ol’ blog of Kingfish’s !

Rick Cleveland is to the left of Obama and has admitted it, So he fits in with MT.

"Playing it right down the middle" is giving it 50%...so you get Viet Nam.

You have to wonder what drug the founders of Mississippi Today were taking in the initial strategic sessions. "Let's start a liberal newspaper to compete with the liberal newspaper that is dying in a conservative state."

Liberalism ruins everything. Ruined the military, journalism, the judiciary. The evidence is all around us. Political correctness attempts to blind us to the degenerate effects. But you can only live in delusions for so long before reality bites. So here we are. The beginnings of the end.

Geoff has interviewed me on many occasions. I have always found him to be fair. One time in particular, when he had really gotten something wrong, he was more than willing to correct it in print when he was shown where he had erred. I never perceived him as biased or pushing a particular agenda as with some others. (Bobby Harrison comes to mind). Geoff is one of the fairest, most accurate journalists around.

The CL does burn easy when you’re lighting the charcoal, though.

One Of My Favorite things was to get the Sunday paper put on a pot of coffee and spend an hour or two reading it cover to cover. Now it takes 10 minutes and thats if I read all the Comics (clearly the best part of the paper) It breaks my heart but that life.

" I still subscribe to CL for obituaries. "

Why ?

You can get all obits free on Legacy.com.

While celebrating the death of the Clarion-Ledger is being greatly anticipated, it will not stop the poisonous liberal pen.

My parrot uses the CL for target practice. Bombs away!
