I'm a big fan of Randy and Cinthya Garcia, the brains behind Yunta and Viva Chicken — so I immediately booked a reservation for their new sushi restaurant when it opened 9 days ago. Price check: Oshen is shockingly inexpensive. My wife and I ordered 7 dishes and 2 cocktails. The total bill was $116. Vibe: It's neighborhoody, which makes sense considering Randy and Cynthia live nearby with their 2 kids. There were several dudes wearing t-shirts and parents with kids.

Dear Chatham Asset Management, I’m offering $5M to buy The Charlotte Observer. I’m serious. My thesis is simple — you don’t have to strictly manage it as a distressed asset, it can be transformed. You’re running the correct newspaper playbook, up until a point. It’s not fun, but it’s the reality you’re faced with in order to provide financial returns.

Nearly one-third of local newspapers have disappeared since 2005, and analysts say it’s accelerating. The financial state of local media is in such disrepair that a group of philanthropies recently announced a $500 million commitment to local journalism. The story of local media advertising has been one of decline — as large digital platforms such as Meta and Google offered cheap targeting and scale — and one of disinvestment, as publishers reallocated resources to grow new revenue streams.
