The perils of privatization

All these bloggers, commentators and journalists extolling the virtues of privately held newspapers crack me up. The grass isn’t always greener …

My friend George Foulsham is among five top editors who just quit the Santa Barbara News-Press amidst a dust up over an apparent crony of the owner, recently accused of a DUI, being appointed interim publisher. Kevin Rodrick has the scoop.

The LAT story is worth reading, too.

My sympathies to George.
