Fortnightly Publication Considers Monthly Publishing

The critically acclaimed Online Newspaper Gazette is toying with the idea of switching to producing a monthly product. The editor-in-chief, who prefers to be called “Tom,” made this statement: “I'm just so tired all the time. This is a lot of work, ya know? And those stupid reporters I have to deal with … it's all very hard to explain.”

The online gazette was previously a daily publication, but only for a very short time. “Oh, yeah, big mistake,” s ays Tom, referring to the first 3 days of his business venture. “Moving to the whole fortnightly thing was a brilliant idea. It saved me tons of thinking.” He admitted the current title sounds a little British, but “it certainly avoids the whole 'difference between bi-weekly and semi-monthly' argument.” Now, he thinks it may be time to make the leap to a slower pace. “I'll probably decide in a couple weeks,” he concluded.
