Given a choice at DH between two declining players on the back end of their 30s Ben Cherington chose the drunk driver with DV issues over the widely-beloved clubhouse leader and local hero. Also the DV guy costs twice as much.

Boooooo. Goodbye to great arts and culture coverage as well as the only publication in town to do honest coverage of anti-genocide protests. Boooooooo
Well folks, some news. Ownership is folding @pghcitypaper.com. I wish I could say this was more surprising. I'll be on the lookout for new roles while I continue to teach and hopefully find places to publish some stories I haven't finished. In the meantime, I'm all ears for opportunities.
