Tom Miller will get the heat too I'm sure, when it was some dumbass in Fargo who did this. If you're referring to the "third period", the NCAA rulebook for college football also refers to the first, second, third, and fourth periods.

Popular Post Irish Posted October 10, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2019 I can understand the new economic reality - I don't like it much but I get it. What I absolutely hate is the barrage of Bison football and Gopher Hockey stories that we are now subject to as we continue to get the Fargo Herald. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the "new economic reality", the Forum should be cutting days as well. They are not. The long-term end game is to dissolve the Herald and force the Fargo Forum on everyone in the Red River Valley. I will NEVER subscribe to that paper. The last thing I want is to have Jeff Kolpack's ugly mug in my face when I am trying to enjoy breakfast in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the life of me, I can't figure this out at all. I swear, if Forum Communications owned The Tuscaloosa News, they'd assign a sports reporter to cover LSU or Auburn football. What a bunch of morons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sioux>Bison Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Epaper no longer viewable without logging in. I guess there will be less football articles now that hockey has started. I guess the Herald no longer wants anyone to read their paper.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNDBIZ Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 The Forum is cutting the Dickinson Press from 5 days to a weekly, contracting printing of the paper with the Bismarck Tribune, and selling the building. Dickinson also printed the Williston Herald and several other western communities' papers, so they'll be switching to Bismarck or someone else as well. https://bismarcktribune.com/business/local/dickinson-press-to-become-weekly-publication-printed-by-the-bismarck/article_fb5b48bd-989d-5cd8-87e0-72bc7a655f43.html#tracking-source=home-top-story-1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen4sioux Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 To make matters worse for western ND, it was just recently a few of the county papers like the Dunn county Herald folded. https://www.google.com/amp/s/bismarcktribune.com/news/state-and-regional/western-north-dakota-newspapers-to-cease-publication-on-friday/article_f32f764a-af00-5188-842c-da525de7e949.amp.html I know papers are a relic but as for local applicable news and information on the farms and ranches of western North Dakota, these changes are very difficult to overcome.

nodak651 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 That article mentioned that the papers were profitable, but not profitable enough to make it worthwhile for the owners to manage. Serious question: rather than just shutting the papers down, why don't the owners just sell the paper to the employees and make it employee owned? Is this because the employees wouldn't be able to pay as much as the owner would get for selling off all of the assets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
