Broad Fast News: In the three months since its launch, at least five staff reporters have already resigned from the new Baltimore Examiner, underscoring one of the major challenges in the free daily newspaper’s editorial business model, which expects each of about 20 staff writers to produce three concise news stories a day, plus several shorter items.
Among the resignations were business reporter Chet Dembeck, Carroll County reporter Craig Meister, and Ari Natter, who covered Howard County for only a few weeks before returning to his previous employer, the daily Carroll County Times. | Media Circus by Gadi Dechter
