I noticed that the newest post by John Cook (I subscribe to his blog's RSS feed) was like two weeks old, then I started wondering what happened. I don't read biz journal today and I doubt if what these guys covered cannot be done better by others at SeattlePI. no big loss. the announcement was very poorly handled and I don’t care as to why, but I expected more from professional journalists.

While being an avid reader of both (in google reader, sometimes at the web site), the loss of these two excellent reporters means that technology reporting for Seattle is basically going to fall to bloggers to cover the scene. Cook, the author of the widely-read John Cook’s Venture Blog, joined the newspaper in April 1999. As he says in his biography on the blog, Cook has covered hundreds of entrepreneurial ventures over the past decade in Seattle - from Avenue A to Zillow.com. Bishop, who covers Microsoft, will be doing his second tour of duty at the weekly Business Journal. He joined the P-I in 2002, according to his biography on the P-I site.
