Not too shocking he would leave. The company has been sold and deal will conclude end of the month.

The deal was announced to be $17.5 million. Calkins has owned the Courier since mid-1950s. Been in biz for 80 years and based in Tullytown

Deal for Western PA papers still has to close. No word official word on layoffs, but employees say some biz staff gone by end of summer.

Sad that we've lost a locally owned paper. Hopefully Gatehouse won't cut jobs, but very likely they will over the next year.

Fun fact: The Bristol Daily Courier and Levittown Times merged in mid-1950s and created the Bucks County Courier Times.

They said they hope local owners swoop in to save Courier/Intell. "Too important" not to save, they said.

Not aware of any newsroom layoffs in Bucks County due to Gatehouse ownership. Paper seems to the same so far.

Hearing buyouts at the Courier and Intell are being offered to some employees and cuts are planned for design and edit desks. Sad news.
