Has it really been ten years?
Don't miss Banjo Jones reminiscing about the Houston Post, which closed ten years ago today.
When I moved to Houston back in the early 1970's, the Post was Houston's morning paper and the Chronicle was delivered in the afternoon. Then, the Chronicle began to publish multiple editions, including a morning edition. Seemingly before you knew it, the Chron had bought the Post's assets and the Post was no more.
As Banjo notes, Houston lost something quite special when the Post closed, and the newspaper landscape in Houston has never been anywhere near as interesting without it.
