Eureka Reporter
"When newspapers lay off someone here and hire someone in India, they are breaking their trust with the American public in order to pinch pennies," writes Dave Stancliff. "As an old newspaper man, I find it difficult to see what’s happening to such an important part of our society because of lack of imagination in solving money problems." || Hindustan Times: It remains to be seen whether outsourcing will cause a dip in editorial quality.
