Comings and goings

City Hall reporter Dan Abendschein has left the Pasadena Star-News to become editor of AOL's Patch site for Altadena. Abendschein wrote on his Facebook page that he was told to leave the newspaper a week earlier than planned because of an apparent conflict between his new job and his duties at the Star-News - the town of Altadena is in the Star-News coverage area.

Less circulation, less employees, no printing, less advertising, less revenue and profit, what news could you expect other than more of the same from this inept group?

Dan is the 5th or 6th reporter to leave SGVN in as many weeks.
