With all the bad news lately, I did find a bit of solace here.

You may have noticed the little underlined passage on that screen capture. It is important because it does not show in their Facebook page and it is also misleading as that newsroom no longer exists. I pointed this out.

That they are gone and no longer in the building is not a state secret. Hell, they even published it back in  June of this year in a very similar-looking article. They even sold the printing building and subcontract the job of a paper edition to another shop in Broward County.

So, like a lot of people today, the Journos of the Herald are working from home.

We know that the office space of today is not what the office space will be for tomorrow as it relates to social distancing and keeping our employees safe. For that reason, Miami Herald and el Nuevo Herald employees will continue to work remotely through the end of the year. After the New Year, once the commercial real estate industry has sorted itself out with regard to new standards and approaches, we will find a new, centralized home.

So what are they after? They either looking for more money to try and rent some abandoned strip mall space and re-open a physical business or they are in such a bad place, they can barely deal with the expenses of their people working from home.

So the Herald has two options: Find themselves a foreign pimp/sugar daddy like the New York Times did or simply close down its doors and save some trees and innocent memory space in the Internet.
