Gerry Spector has been bumped up to Randy Michaels old job of Tribune COO.
There is some question as to how long these fellas will keep their posts, since the post-bankruptcy Tribune is likely to be run by the creditors who will choose their own management team.
Of course if they are relieved of their duties, they will be able to claim the maximum severance package, I’m sure.



A wise old editor once told me:
“Always take every promotion. It increases your severance.”
Removing senior staff can be harder and more expensive than recruiting them! (it can turn into a job itself, or so my clients tell me)
