More meltdown in Santa Barbara


Reporters at the Santa Barbara News-Press are silently protesting today following the resignation of a sixth editor at the paper. Owner Wendy McCaw published a front-page note to readers Thursday that characterized the paper's turmoil as a disagreement about local coverage.


The Tracy Press has an Associated Pres story today that reports that some of the departed insist ethics are at the heart of the matter, while the newspaper's ownership say a focus on local news led to the exits.
