Twins!
It's no secret that The Seattle Times and the PI are joined at the hip — literally and figuratively — but yesterday's front pages just screamed out for comparison.
Like here, onn the left, the PI: "Court nixes county's land use limits.
And on the right, the Times: "Court says rural-land restrictions go too far."
Yes, they are on opposite sides of the paper, but they are actually about the same ruling.
Both papers also feature housing costs as their big issue — no surprise, considering that they cater to a solid middle-class readership. But it really is too much when they both cite Windermere in their battling coverage.
Combined, the two papers ran 27 articles referencing "mortgage"— in just one day.
Guys, why delay the inevitable? Just merge them already.
