The ink on the amended JOA is dry ...
... because, of course, there is no ink – it's a PDF.
The Seattle Times has posted a PDF (1.9 MB) of the amendment to the Seattle newspapers joint operating agreement (JOA) here.
If you would prefer to patronize the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, their copy of the same document is here.
Another way to look at it: Click on the version offered by the paper you disfavor, so they pay for the bandwidth, saving the other paper money.

Are you going to tell us how the new differs from the old and what that all means to Ricky and Riki Reader? Or do we have to figure that out on our own without having the original against which to compare it?
Just checking...

RE: Where's the beef?: It's a 55-page document. We'll get back to you.

1.9 MB is a pinpick on their bandwidth: Sorry but if we're going to drain our least favorite paper ... we'll probably have to find another way.

I am a lowly comment: Soon, Chuck Taylor will read me, and, for reasons known only to him, he will delete me. Nevermind that my very existence raises important questions about the relationship between journalism and its consumers in the internet age. Nevermind that some of you might have appreciated me in spite of my irrelevance to The Topic, or perhaps even because of it. And nevermind the hard work and craft that my author put into me.
Farewell, fellow comments. May your fate be better than mine.
