Somebody thinks we deserve a BAILOUT!

With the news that the Los Angeles Times will be laying off another 300 employees as well as consolidating its metro and state section - California - into its A-section, one could say that the sky is now officially falling.

Venice Paper calls it a move that's akin to the L.A. Times cutting off its head.

But, at least we are not suffering in silence.

This guy, as well as many others, thinks the newspaper industry deserves a bailout. (This is obviously an idea that comes with a bunch of little devil's the in the details, but still, let's not think about all of that and just appreciate the suggestion, shall we?)

Calling newspapers essential to democracy, blogger Jim Gogek is urging everyone to start appreciating us and to help us merge into the digital age....because God knows we need help.

....awwww, see, somebody does care.
