My former station, KING TV reported this evening that the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, owned by Hearst, will be put up for sale. According to the anonymously-sourced report, Hearst doesn’t believe the paper will sell and would then close it down, leaving the Seattle Times as the remaining daily paper. This is a surprise for many Seattleites — not because one of the two dailies here may be going away, but because it’s the PI and not the financially-struggling Times.Â
Next question: What would become of SeattlePI.com, the most popular local news website in town?
