Ethan, having worked at the Trib or PG does not preclude ex-staffers from writing about the problems there, so long as the former affiliation is disclosed.

And does anyone actually believe journalistic "potentiual future career options" exist in Pittsburgh's "tiny media circles" for anybody? Certain Trib refugees have escapes. Zito moved to the wingnut media, the only place she ever belonged. Prine got hired at the san Diego paper. Otherwise the journalistic destinies for most ex-Trib and PG folks, if they want to stay in journalism, are not in the Pittsburgh area.

I don't have a problem with Charlie. A good guy. But how many people around here would really care if CP vanished tomorrow? Alt weeklies are a thing of the past. Pittsburgh just hasn't gotten the memo.
