A Pulitzer Prize last month

A Pulitzer Prize last month. Layoffs this month.

The Minnesota Star Tribune just cut 15% of its staff — just weeks after winning journalism's highest honor.

Look, I'm no fan of media bailouts or foundation money with strings attached. But the paper that covered a mass shooting with "thoroughness and compassion" — that won a Pulitzer — is bleeding out .When local news dies, nobody's watching city hall. Nobody's tracking the sheriff. Nobody's fact-checking anyone.
