Final Days? A Newsroom Diary
Index of Highlights

This journal started as a short-term project intended simply to bear witness to the final few weeks of a doomed afternoon newspaper targeted for closure by its owners and Gannett, their partner in the Hawaii Newspaper Agency.

Instead, after a federal court in Honolulu blocked the closure pending a trial on antitrust issues raised by the State of Hawaii, it has evolved into an ongoing record of this groundbreaking attempt to stop the corporate destruction of newspaper competition in our city. These pages have developed in the same ad hoc manner, without an original long range plan of any kind.

In lieu of a radical redesign, which would take more time and effort than I've got to spare right now, I'm adding this brief index to some of the highlights of the months since the plan to close the Star-Bulletin was first announced.
