MONTECITO TIDE GUIDE

Ms. McCaw has frequently voiced her support for animals. Notwithstanding the value of her stance, I can’t help but wonder why she doesn’t acknowledge the necessity of protecting other sentient beings? These would be humans, of course. She has systematically plowed over the many reputable employees who have graced the News-Press over the years. Now, in declaring bankruptcy she has once again, thrown her present employees “under the bus.” Tragic as well are the legal reparations which she has neglected to pay to those who worked for her in the past.
