In the past six months, I've had one job killed (at a weekly no less), after corporate had been pushing the publisher to fill it ASAP. Then, corporate, at Hartman Newspapers in Texas, pulled the job.
Meanwhile, in Los Alamos, N.M., the publisher there apparently considered his initial managing editor ad an excuse to float a trial balloon, then either get greedier on position demands, or else decide to get rid of somebody else and fold that work into the M.E.'s position. (Since he won't talk about the details of his re-advertising the position, I don't know which it is.)
Anyway, there is, or is supposed to be, such a thing as media ethics internally as well as externally, isn't there?
