Metro Editor Eddie Barrera just walked out of the newsroom, wrapping up a two year stint as the head honcho and five years as a LANG staffer. He was a mentor to many of us young reporters. 

He is off to Guatemala for a month, and then heading to New York to do, well, I’m sure he’ll let us know when he figures it out,

In his place, Frank Girardot, Crime Scene blogger and city editor, will step in, and we are still awaiting a formal decision on who our assistant city editor will be.
