Newspaper Roundup: Gannett; Canwest; A Good Day For Print

-- Gannett's Dubow slashes own salary: Adopting a policy of "spreading the pain," Gannett (NYSE: GCI) Chairman Craig Dubow has taken a voluntary $200,000 pay cut through 2009. The 17 percent reduction in Dubow's $1.2 million base salary will still leave the Gannett chair with a bonus, deferred compensation and stock awards and options, amounting to a total compensation of about $7.5 million. The move comes a week after Gannett said it would shed 3,000 jobs across its local papers.

-- Canwest scales back print delivery: Canada's National Post will cease home delivery in Manitoba—the home of parent Canwest—and will only offer Saturday papers through Manitoba stores and in nearby Saskatchewan. Instead, the Post will sell discounted digital subscriptions and will share content with the Winnipeg Free Press.

-- A good day for print: It looks like saving a screenshot just can't compare with an actual page one. The successful conclusion of Barack Obama's history-making presidential bid had NYC dailies all sold out by early morning.

For those who still avoided print the morning after election day, Romenesko has excerpts from newspaper front pages here.
