On 'Fitz & Jen' Blog: A Chat About Analysts Whacking Newspapers, a Pair of New Videos and Much More!

Posted
By: E&P Staff Monday's topics on the new E&P blog "Fitz & Jen Give You the Business," http://www.fitzandjen.com/ range from a look at the latest analysts' assessments of newspaper stocks, to discussions of new content delivery technologies and partnerships. Also: new details about McClatchy CEO Gary Pruitt's resignation from family voting trusts, along with a parody commercial.

Editor-at-Large Mark Fitzgerald and Associate Editor Jennifer Saba chat back and forth about analysts from Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Morningstar, who issued separate but equally pessimistic takes on newspaper stocks. Are newspapers really "value traps"?

"Fitz & Jen" looks at the still-unnamed product from Plastic Logic that could do for electronic newspaper reading devices what Motorola's Razr did for cell phones -- and offer a video that explains the technology;.

Check out new magazine from Parade, and enjoy a video on the rivalry between the Chicago Sun-Times and Chicago Tribune that recalls the "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" commercial. Fitz thinks its way better than that head-scratching Microsoft spot featuring Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates and plans to make computers that you can eat like cake.
