COMMENTS: From Snail to E
Make that three days in a row that the looming $7bn loss at the United States Postal Service has made it to the networks' nightly newscasts. NBC's Lisa Myers sounded the alarm Monday; ABC's Steve Osunsami followed up Tuesday. Now CBS' Nancy Cordes tells us about the woes of snail mail "in an Internet age." A combination of layoffs and delivery cutbacks and office closings faces the USPS. Cordes showed us the belt tightening at Elite Occasions, a specialty gift store, by way of explanation: the conversion of all of its invoicing, catalogues and promotional fliers from paper to e-mail eliminates most of its postage and saves between $10,000 and $20,000 each year.
