My mailbox has delivered bad media news once again.
Liz Hummer , (above right) the former editor of
PDX magazine and more recently the editor of
LivePDX , the web component of the Meredith Group's
KPTV and KPDX networks, has been let go. According to her note Hummer wasn't given any information about plans for the site, except that they are "restructuring" the internet departments and that the site will be considerably less involved, "if it continues to exist at all."
Oregon Media Insiders has an interesting post about the current state of affairs for the Meredith Group
here .
Hummer, now looking for any freelance, project, contract, part-time or full-time work that may be out there including writing, editing, copyediting, research, marketing, or (OMG) public relations.
