The Publisher and Editor of The Plain Dealer say the paper "very soon" will have "a specific plan" to "safeguard" its future. The union representing reporters launches a campaign to "save the paper." For the community's sake - what needs saving and safeguarding, and what's the best way to do that? We'll ask a member of the Newspaper Guild, an online reporter, a city councilman, a foundation chief, and you. Join the conversation on The Sound of Ideas Wednesday morning at 9 on 90.3
