The Star-Tribune is cutting its staff positions for an architecture critic and a classical music critic. The music cut is especially puzzling. “It’s a music center. It’s a capital of American music, and for the people running this newspaper not to get that and not to see it’s really important, even if they don’t understand it, is beyond my ken. What are they thinking about? They want this still to be considered an important newspaper, and they don’t really understand this part of the community.”
