    Editor who published gun-owner map fired! (Rockland Co., NY)


    Janet Hasson Fires Caryn McBride
    Posted August 7th, 2013

    The Rockland County Times has learned that Rockland County Chief Editor Caryn McBride is among the casualties of the recent purge of 17 journalists *and 26 total staffers at the Gannett-owned Journal News newspaper.

    McBride gained fame earlier this year for her involvement in the Journal News gun map fiasco. Police reports indicated McBride had called the Clarkstown Police Department to notify them of torrents of angry phone calls and letters the newspaper received following the publication of the map.

    The Rockland editor said she felt threatened by the complaints, but local police did not agree a credible threat against the safety of employees of the newspaper existed. Unsatisfied, McBride and other executives decided to hire armed guards to protect their property, causing an uproar due to the perceived hypocrisy of the avowed anti-gun editors hiring gun-toting men.

    The decision to lay off McBride was made by Journal News Publisher and CEO Janet Hasson. The fate of *Editor-in-Chief CynDee Royle has not been made public.

    Good riddance.

    Isn't this the same newspaper who had the employees addresses and phone numbers listed by some blogger in retaliation?

    Yep, that's why they hired the armed guards mentioned in the article.

    Is the Obama administration looking for a new propaganda press secretary?
    Rules are written in the stone,
    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.
