JOUR M02 Writing and Reporting for the Media: Former L.A. Times Publisher <br>Will Run LDS Holding Company


Saul Daniels blog spotted this news item about Mark Willes, former CEO of Times Mirror and Publisher of the Los Angeles Times. Called the "Cereal Killer" by the NY Daily News because of his decisions to shut down New York Newsday and the afternoon paper in Baltimore, as well as his background as an executive at General Mills, it's amazing to think that newspaper folk may now look back fondly at his era.

    Thanks for posting this Jeff. Haven't heard Willes's name in a while. Must be the night of the living dead.
