This week's Post layoffs hit a chord for me, so I wrote something personal, timed with the anniversary of my own layoff a year ago.

Where Do the Journalists Go Now?
As media titans self-combust, what does that mean for reporters, their sources and the news we desperately need?

It’s hard to believe the time has come already, but you can pre-order my book CANADA’S ENDANGERED ANIMALS for your nature-loving kids (or yourself, I don’t judge).
It’s only $17.95 (less than a child’s average biweekly berry budget) and will be shipped to you in mid-May.

I'm told that the Ted Rogers statue is being moved to Rogers corporate offices, which is the right thing to do. It never should have been at the ballpark.
