Seattle Weekly Publisher Alisa
Cromer has resigned, citing
disagreements with Village Voice
Media management about how the
paper should be run. VVM CEO David
Schneiderman tells AAN News
Cromer's resignation "did not have to do
with any financial, budgetary, or
personnel issues." The shake-up means
Schneiderman will spend time out West
to oversee Seattle Weekly and LA Weekly,
while Group Publisher Albie Del
Favero will concentrate on papers in
Minneapolis, Cleveland and Nashville.

For the Weekly, the photo illustrates the paper's annual "Best of Seattle" reader survey; for The Stranger, it fronts for "the Best of Kevin Jones' Apartment." Weekly publisher Alisa Cromer tells the Seattle Times, "It's like having an annoying younger brother repeating everything you say."
