Five editors and one columnist resign!

"I just hate to see what has happened to the newspaper." one editor said.

Could it be? Is this the first of many such resignations from the New York Times?

Naw, what were you thinking.

The five editors and one columnist who resigned are from the Santa Barbara News-Press.

Just what has the owner of this fine newspaper been doing to cause such a remarkable shake up at her paper?

Did she publish the classified details of the NSA terrorist surveillance program and tip off the terrorists as to how we were tracking their communications? No that was the New York Times.

Did she publish the classified details of the terrorist financing network (SWIFT) program ? No that would be the New York Times again.

What did she publish or what didn't she want published? What was so terrible?

"For a number of months, there has been a discussion between Mrs. McCaw and senior editors about the direction of the News-Press," said the spokesman, Sam Singer. "She desired to have a stronger emphasis on local news, and these individuals didn't like that emphasis, and so they decided to part company."

Oh and the straw that broke the camels back-

Another dispute involved her reprimand of a reporter and three editors for publishing the address where actor Rob Lowe planned to build his "dream home."

Oh my! How dare she withhold such vital public information! The publics right to know must come first!
Oh wait, that is Bill Keller's line.
