From the Santa Barbara News Press to the LADN

Whenever we go to Santa Barbara, we park right behind the Santa Barbara News-Press building, and I've always wondered what kind of people work there, given it serves one of the country's most-expensive cities to live in.

Now that the News-Press is in turmoil, people who once worked there are trickling over here, according to Editor & Publisher (Santa Barbara News-Press' Staffers Who Quit Head to L.A. Daily News).

Now I'll get the chance to ask Kim Burnell and George Foulsham that eternal question: What's the deal with Santa Barbara and not being up to your neck in money? For sure, you don't want to piss off Rob Lowe. (Cue "St. Elmo's Fire" theme.)
