Chan Lowe laid off from Sun-Sentinel
Skip to commentsThe same day the world was horrified and then rallied to stand by cartoonists and their right to free speech, the Sun-Sentinel laid off Chan Lowe, their staff editorial cartoonist of 30 years, according to Buddy Nevins a blogger that covers journalism in Southern Florida.
Nevin writes:
Lowe was just one of several employees dumped this week. Eight editing and writing positions were eliminated, numerous sources said.
…
I?m confident other outlets will continue to print Lowe?s art and that he will do fine without the Sun-Sentinel.
I?m not so confident the Sun-Sentinel will do fine without him.
Lowe?s parting is another reason why the Sun-Sentinel is in a long slide towards irrelevance and eventual oblivion.
Chan has been with the Sun-Sentinel since 1984. Prior to that he was the staff cartoonist for the Shawnee News-Star and Oklahoma City Times.
