This just in, from the Providence Newspaper Guild:

Joint Resolution of the Providence Newspaper Guild Executive Committee and Providence Unit Council
Adopted unanimously Jan. 30, 2009
In recognition of the trying times facing the newspaper industry and the sacrifices A.H. Belo employees have been called upon to make, including in some cases their very jobs, we call on A.H. Belo CEO and president Robert W. Decherd to forgo his recent 140% raise and return his base salary to its 2008 level of a quarter million dollars a year.
