The San Diego Daily Transcript/San Diego Source newspaper is going out of business after almost 130 years. The last paper will be printed September 1 and the company will cease operations three weeks later, according to an announcement today (July 22) by Robert Loomis, publisher.
Loomis said that operations were problematic "in a market of San Diego's size." He blamed "increasing overhead, healthcare costs, and the uncertain future of of the news industry." The paper and its website specialized in business, legal, and real estate news.
The 21-year old website will linger on for awhile, then cease operations, Loomis said.
