      <![CDATA[And what happens when the paper decides you've said Screw-U too many times and stops sending you work? If the CA is anything like other companies that go the independent contractor route, they'll expect you to be just as much the team player as you would if you earned a weekly paycheck, but without that pesky weekly paycheck and benefits.

Whe  you have to eat every week, can you afford to work on a story that takes weeks or months to finish, all the while not having income from that work?

      <![CDATA[Nobody wants to freelance, but there are a couple of perks if you can get past the no benefits and dirty tricks the paper pulls. One is that writers are so well known by the community that it leads to other freelance offers from people who know your writing, so even if you go back to them as a freelancer you can get additional money from other companies.

      <![CDATA[What the CA is doing vis a vis freelancers should be criminal. They can't legally take away the employee's benefits, so they just take the person's job and then offer it back to them without benefits.<br>

It cracks me up when people accuse the CA of being some kind of liberal propaganda machine.
