Washington Blade's Windows Media 'Bites the Dust!'

It was just a few weeks ago that I rejoiced in hearing news that The Washington Blade was celebrating its 40th anniversary.

So when visiting Whitman Walker Clinic earlier today that a fellow client informed me and others of the abrupt closure of Windows Media & The Washington Blade ... remembering my recent blog posting pertaining to its 40th anniversary celebration I thought, to myself, "... yet, another newspaper bites the dust ...!

Click the image to view my Washington Blade photo album at Ipernity. And here is my Washington Blade set at Flickr.

And though my Newspaper Collection project is under construction here is my 1992 and 1993 Washington Blade archives.
