Reporter at Tri-City Herald announces he is leaving the newspaper

Chris Mulick reports he is leaving McClatchy's Tri-City Herald. He cites concerns about the financial health of the newspaper industry as a major factor in leaving.


I can’t point to one single reason that fueled this decision. There are many factors involved in the complex equation.

But certainly, the financial troubles plaguing this industry have created considerable uncertainty. And while the Herald has given me every assurance my job is safe in this bureau it’s unsettling how quickly the unthinkable has become reality in this business. With a young family, I’ve no choice but to risk jumping too soon. I simply can’t risk jumping too late.

Extra credit quiz: Guess which political party Mulick is going to work for.
