As you know, I'm well acquainted with the newspaper sites across the country and I've found DFM papers lacking quality content in each newspaper. If the acquisition occurred it would have a very visible impact in Indiana, Louisiana, New Jersey, New Mexico, Tennessee and Wisconsin. Additionally, DFM is viewed as having a more conservative bias than Gannett.
