DNews: The Deseret News Is a Newspaper for the Future

That's what they're sayin', ha, ha, ha

This morning's Deseret News finally gets around to formally announcing its revolutionary make-over this morning, about which various folks have been speculating on WCF over the past several weeks. Here's the lowdown, such as it is:
The Deseret News is a newspaper for the future
Looks like the DNews has fired its most of its most talented talented print media journalists, and is now filling the massive gap with lightweight KSL TeeVee News journalists (so-called,) and LDS Church flaks.

They're gonna be "innovative," they say. LOL.

As an added bonus, and in aid of adding additional grist for the WCF discussion mill, here are a few random "takes" from the World-wide Webosphere:
McEntee: Day One at the new Deseret News
Huffingtom Post: Deseret News Slashing Newsroom In Half

So what say our gentle readers about this?
