Examiner newspaper eliminates comics page from Baltimore editions
Submitted by STrRedWolf on July 31, 2007 - 08:51
The Examiner, a year-old newspaper in selected cities including Baltimore, has removed all comics from the paper and expanded the games section to fill the rest of the page. Marmaduke, Over The Hedge, Pooch Cafe, Spot the Frog, and other strips are nowhere to be found in the paper starting this Monday, with no word as to why they were removed.
[XEREXES: I think the Examiner did this in every market it's in - I've been told that the DC edition also removed all of its comics]

Help save Palladium Books! The publisher not only is unable to overcome a $1.3 million loss due to embezzlement, many deals with Nokia fell through, other deals are slow going, and the books are just not flying off the shelves. If there's no inflow of cash, no more Palladium! They're now selling a limited numbered edition poster of all their Megaverse characters for $50 each (plus S&H).
Bill in Congress threatens access to webcomics, rest of indie Internet.
Submitted by STrRedWolf on April 20, 2006 - 22:18
MoveOn.org recently discovered a bill that AT&T and other Internet ISP giants are trying to get enacted into law -- one that allows them to control which sites get better access to the Internet. If enacted, the playing field gets rocky as connectivity to indepenent webcomics and collectives dies while print comics bribe ISP's for the extra access. They're now running a petition to Congress asking the Congress critters to vote against the bill.
