A group of Ladue News employees have left the St. Louis-area Lee Enterprises lifestyle paper to start a rival publication.
The new Town & Style will debut Feb. 9. Thirty issues are planned for the first year; a weekly schedule is planned after that. It will be led by former Ladue News publisher Lauren Rechand and editor Dorothy Weiner, and will employee about 15 people. Eight more former Ladue News employees have already joined Town & Style.
Weiner told the St. Louis Business Journal that Lee's corporate structure forced her, and several other Ladue News employees, to leave that publication.
"There's no question that Lee Enterprises, the parent company (of Ladue News), is very bottom-line focused," she said. "Ladue News has always been something of a family business. Even after it was sold to Pulitzer, we were left alone and we were allowed to run independently. Recently, there is more of a shift to (Lee) homogenizing all holdings in St. Louis. That was what people rebelled against."

Hurrah for the new paper. About time that a rival publication crept in and competed! Thanks
Isn't Lee's big payment due next week?
I hear rumblings that a corporate-wide re-org will coincide. This will mean downsizing publishers the same way they have already done with HR staff.
Is this blog on hiatus?
Any one working on this blog any more? Lots of stuff going on in my location, would like to hear where else are things are going sour.

Gannett McClatchy the parent company of the Fresno Bee owns Topix together with the Tribune. Glynna Billings Scott Brockett first wife works for the Fresno Bee as VP Finance. Donna Brockett Scott's second wife often boast to her friends Glynna is well connected and has influential friends at that organization which has provided her with computer IP, home addresses, telephone numbers, voice and text messages of any one which has posted negative information about Scott, Donna and the Brockett Kids.
It appears a new Rupert Murdock is in the works at the Fresno Bee. No wonder this paper never investigated nor published the real cause of Mathew Scott Brockett’s death.
Some people will just abuse their authority; the public have a right to know!

What a crappy blog. Obviously, nobody is working on this anymore. What a waste to start something and then give up. Pointless.
Beijing was previously known as Peking and is a very populated destination. It is a prime transportation hub and has a complex network of roads, railways and motorways. It is located at North China Plain. The Great Wall of China extends over the northern part of the conurbation. It boasts of a humid subtropical type of climate with humid summers and windy winters. The air pollution level has decreased over the passage of time, the main reason being the preparation for the Summer Olympics 2008. It is a major tourist junction and hence receives plenty of visitors all round the year who take frequent flights to Beijing. Some of the hotels that provide perfect accommodation have been discussed in brief as under:
