Regarding news media coverage or lack thereof:
As of 4pm today, there hasn't been a single word about the CSX-PAR acquisition in any of Maine's newspapers or on any of Maine's TV stations.
Maine Public Radio, which is Maine's NPR affiliate, did mention it briefly on-air today and posted a brief story on their web site at 2pm...
Maine's second-largest paper, the
Bangor Daily News, finally decided to post something about the PAR sale on their web site, but instead of assigning a reporter to do a story, they picked up the brief blurb from Maine Public Radio.
Maine's NBC affiliates, WCSH and WLBZ, posted a short story here:

Still not a peep from Maine's largest paper, the
Portland Press Herald, nor from Maine's ABC or CBS affiliates.
I think I'll go make another donation to Maine Public Radio.
