Another one gone

The Pasadena Star-News is losing another reporter. Alison Hewitt, who recently transferred to the paper from sister San Gabriel Valley Tribune to fill a gap left after last month's layoffs, handed in her resignation today. She's leaving to work for UCLA's alumni magazine.

With her departure, the Star-News is back down to five reporters. Pasadena's two sister papers, the Tribune and Whittier Daily News, have another 12 reporters between them.
