A week after McClatchy laid off journalists nationwide, the newspaper chain announced their replacements:
Editors for a new “innovation lab” focused on AI-generated lifestyle articles.

On Sept. 10, The Kansas City Star's parent company McClatchy laid off six of our union members.

HELL HAS A BORDER, AND TONIGHT IT RUNS THROUGH LAWRENCE.
The oldest football rivalry west of the Mississippi is back- KU vs. Mizzou. Generations of bad blood. Two states. Two fan bases that can’t stand each other. And absolutely ZERO love lost.
Tonight, Mizzou walks into Lawrence.
Let’s make damn sure they regret it.
ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK. 🔴🔵🌾
BEAT MIZZOU. LFG!!!

Every time a company like @mcclatchy makes gutting layoffs across the country, people rightfully ask why local investors can't buy their local papers
Here's the truth: You may not make much money doing journalism these days, but you can make a lot of money killing it
It was just two years ago that the chancellor told me KU Athletics had to remain self-sufficient and couldn't take money from general university funds.
This quoted post is unavailable.
reminder: this is the legislature's fault. they tied this to KU's state funding. yell at your local state rep/state senator about this
Chancellor Douglas Girod announced that all University of Kansas employees, including students, must remove personal pronouns from email signatures by July 31.

Release from Student Body President regarding the UDK decrease in funding via Instagram.

time is a flat circle. this happened my freshman year, this happened my sophomore year, and it is beyond ridiculous that this has happened my senior year as well.

I TRULY cannot explain how horrible this would be for the university. I attribute everything that I am, both professionally and personally, to my growth that I gained from two years working for the UDK, and the way that it seems like every year —kansan.com/news/ku-student-s…
it is shameful that student senate, despite proclaiming that they represent the students of the University, are attacking the very newspaper which has ensured time and time again, across 121 years, that student voices are consistently heard from across the spectrum.

there is a petition that has been started by the Kansan's leadership - if you support student media in any form, I would encourage you to sign it.
