Just received word that Andres Martinez has resigned in the wake of "Grazergate."
Don't know if he did anything consciously subversive, however, the quality of his work on the editorial pages has been taken to task by pros such as Ken Reich and Bill Boyarsky in the past. And truly if he was ever going to be asked to resign, I hope it would be for this reason.
Had I been Martinez, I never would have agreed to give up command of such an influential post without one hell of a fight, let alone to someone inexperienced as Brian Grazer. His willingness to cede his post for that one Sunday was an indication of either extreme pressure from other forces or a leadership that was uncertain.
Let the investigation begin.
