For those of you that don't get your news and views exclusively from Red County--doubt it is many of you, but Red County doesn't have much of a Sports Section--it looks like there will be a new sheriff in town at the OC Register. The OCR and LAT are reporting that N. Christian Anderson III is leaving. He's been the OCR's publisher since 1999. The replacement will be Terry Horne, publisher of the East Valley Tribune in Mesa, Arizona. Freedom Communications, Inc. owns both papers, so I doubt there will be any radical changes.
Maybe Jubal can send Terry a welcoming fruit basket with the note: "Welcome to town...fix your website."
I haven't checked, is the EV Trib's website better than the OCR's?
In case you were wondering, in sports news: Dodgers lost, Garret Anderson (and the rest of the Angels) won big over the Yankees. And for you whiny purists, yes OC sports is not OC politics. But politics is chiefly about securing the greatest good for the people. Given that the Yankees are evil, the Angels have, therefore, done good for our polis--regardless of any dispute over which polis they are actually in.
In addition to fixing their web site, they need to return control of the community papers to the community editors. They have improved the blogs though so lets give them credit where credit is due.

Could the super successful, exciting, like having a license to print money OC POST have anything to do with this?

The Republicans beat the Democrats last night in the annual legislative softball game:
