Lots of newspapers close, but I record this particular newsprint death simply because I love the paper’s title: the Lordsburg Liberal. After 120 years the oldest weekly in New Mexico is about to publish its final issue. Its owners, MediaNews Group, say they prefer to grow another of their titles instead, the Hidalgo County Herald. But it’s a pity to lose that title, is it not? And some of us – not President Bushobviously – do like the Liberal media!
