Nashua Telegraph (Maybe) to Drop Associated Press

-- David Brooks, author of a science column for the Telegraph since 1991, says he may have spoken out of turn on announcing the newspaper's decision:

"NOTE: I may have jumped the gun; the paper is still debating whether to drop the Associated Press (AP) - the problem being national sports and scores.

As of Jan. 1 (actually Jan. 2, since we don’t publish on New Year’s Day) the Telegraph will no longer use the AP. We’re been preparing for a while; I hadn’t realized the New Hampshire Union-Leader made the same decision until they announced it yesterday. This is a money saving move (we’re using several other wire services in its place) that reflects the way the Internet has made much wire copy a commodity available everywhere, and how all papers have been trying to emphasize local stories.

This is almost as big a change for the Telegraph as getting somebody else to print our paper, as we discussed recently."
