I realize that Athenae walks the TRONC beat around here but I felt like taking a few shots at them myself. In this case by posting two tweets from the great Ron Rosenbaum who hates everything about TRONC, especially that stupid name:

Any company that calls itself "tronc" has no business owning an entity that involves writing. Only stupid people would find "tronc"
appealing on any level.. https://t.co/IoVu5FSI3S

The arrant stupidity of tronc–firing DailyNews library staff. Is it okay if I say I despise every single decision maker in the hateful tronc administration? tronc. tronc. tronc. The sheer ugliness of it tells you all you need to know about these dimwits. https://t.co/IbpIpZLDBC

TRONC recently sold off the Los Angeles Times. The new ownership is moving the paper out of the gorgeous art deco building erected when the Chandlers owned the paper. One reason cited for the move was high rents. As a part of their asset stripping strategy, TRONC sold the building two years ago, which is why the rent got too damn high. Once they’re done firing people, they’ll do the same thing at the Daily News. Asset stripping is what these fuckers do.

That concludes this post about TRONC: Destroyer of Newspapers.
