My Brilliant Husband

Today, in the wake of McClatchy Co.'s offer to buy the Knight-Ridder group of newspapers, the Wall Street Journal reaffirms the importance of newspapers, if the journalism and the business ends are both handled intelligently.

Funny, that's essentially what my husband said here in The Journal on December 7 in his piece "No Substitute for Excellence," penned when the potential sale of Knight Ridder first began to be discussed.

Prescient, no?
