The newspaper that hired me as graphic designer and editorial cartoonist has officially been discontinued. Another victim of the new economy. I really love that paper and all the people involved with its creation and distribution. All my best to Tim O'Callaghan and his wonderful family. Thanks for all you've done for me over the years. there is a very large hole in the Henderson, Nevada community. But the impact of the papers and the record it has kept will be evidence of it's importance to the growth of Henderson and Boulder City.
It's a sad day for those communities and the folks who worked for and loved those papers. As I've gotten older, I've seen that everything has its own cycle. Looks like printed newspapers are coming to the end of the road. Not just here, but in Detroit, Boston, Miami, Chicago. Well-respected big city dailies whose time, unfortunately, is passing. It's just the natural order of things, no different than the transition from radio to TV to Web and beyond. It's a bittersweet passage but one that opens the door to new opportunties.
