Chicago Stanley Cup Victory In 2,000 Words
28 June 2013
The SunTimes/DarkTimes blog compared the front pages of the Sun-Times.com and Tribune after the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup this week.
As the blog notes, "The Sun-Times let go its photography staff in favor of more multimedia and reporters with iPhones." And the comparison between the two publications' coverage is revealing.

You get what you pay for.
