Cassidy: KR's death leaves me sad, furious, proud, hopeful
San Jose Mercury News
At Monday's "funeral" for Knight Ridder, CEO Tony Ridder started to thank those he'd worked with, but became too choked up to finish. "Me? I didn't cry, but I did mourn," writes Mike Cassidy. "I thought about the February 1982 day that I walked into the Boca Raton News, a tiny Knight Ridder paper in Florida. It was my first daily newspaper job and I felt like I'd been hired by the New York Yankees of newspaper companies. Sure, I was a utility player with a backwater minor league team, but I worked for Knight Ridder. I couldn't have been prouder."
> "It's a sad day, but I guess that's life," says Peter Ridder (Mercury News)
> Knight Ridder newspapers marked the sale in different ways (Inquirer)
> Times Leader's new owner is nothing like "strongman boss" Ridder (TL)
> "Knight Ridder was very good to Grand Forks," says Herald editor (GFH)
> Centre Daily Times editor: Thanks to KR, welcome to McClatchy (CDT)
