Paper View Monday: Statesman Journal of Salem, Oregon

The lever on my gigantic Paper View Monday machine has been jammed on “Florida” for a full five weeks now, and hasn’t spit out a western newspaper building since February. I think it’s sorted now, however, so let’s jet off to Salem, Oregon for a look at the Statesman Journal in Virtual Earth/Live Maps. Trivia I still find a little amazing: The Statesman Journal in 2006 won first place in the general excellence category of the state Better Newspaper Contest, two places ahead of a paper six times its size. Take that, you light rail-riding hippies.
