Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Post-Gazette management says it's "prepared to take steps to put the paper up for sale" if it doesn't have labor agreements with its unions by Dec. 31. The paper says contracts that significantly reduce expenses are necessary because the Post-Gazette has lost almost $23 million since 2003. The Post-Gazette's owner, Block Communications, is also involved in bitter negotiations with its paper in Toledo, the Blade.
