Daily Planet publisher Andrew Mirrington said that while the Planet will continue to offer hard news coverage, The Watch may shift to longer features of regional interest and might have a different focus on arts and entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>The acquisition happened quickly, so details are still being worked out. The Watch\u2019s first edition under its new owner is scheduled to be issued Dec. 4.<\/p>\n<p>The Watch was founded by Marta Tarbell and her husband, Seth Cagin, in 1996 as a faxed newsletter after the Telluride Times-Journal went out of business. They began their newspaper careers in New York City. Tarbell worked for the Herald-Tribune, New York Post and Cond\u00e9 Nast publications. Cargin worked for Rolling Stone and has written several books.<\/p>\n<p>Mirrington said staff members of The Watch have been offered the opportunity to work for the Daily Planet. Some personnel from each of The Watch\u2019s departments will be needed. He did not return calls asking for information on how many jobs will be eliminated because of the acquisition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watch, a weekly that covers Telluride and other communities in the region, has been purchased by the Telluride Daily Planet.
