How do you say goodbye?

When Missoulian digital editor Tim Akimoff resigned at the end of August, he posted a farewell on Facebook, which includes this paragraph:
"I believe in the process of news and the responsibility of a local newspaper to provide news to the citizens. Unfortunately, newspapers are helmed by old, decrepit captains who cannot see past their bifocals way down their noses reading about yesterday with all the relevance of the Hindenberg blimp disaster."

Read the rest of Akimoff's farewell note on Poynter.
