Press imbroglio in Santa Barbara

I appreciate your coverage of the battle between News-Press publisher Wendy McCaw and the reporters she sacked (“Trial dissects roles at newspaper,” Aug. 15). Since she assumed control, the News-Press has pretty much been destroyed.

We gave up our subscription months ago, after well-respected reporters were unceremoniously escorted from their desks for not kowtowing to a petulant McCaw. Now, it’s nothing more than a venue for a billionaire-turned-publisher who knows nothing about journalism and cares little for our town. If this publisher wins, look out!
