An interesting side note to the Sanford scandal: The State Media Co. laid off 11 percent of its work force in March 2009. And this happened while the newspaper was sitting on Sanford emails they had received in December 2008.
I guess they didn't want to sell any additional copies at the time. After all, with increased revenues they might have been able to... Well, not lay off so many people. No wonder newspapers are going down in flames.
