Author, humorist and blogger James Lilek has just be reassigned by his newspaper, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. They’ve cancelled his column and reassigned him to work the local newsbeat.
The Strib has long had a reputation as an epically clueless institution, but WOW. That’s all I can say to that. By the time enough people cancel their subscriptions to wise them up, I fully expect Lileks to have a better paying job somewhere else.
