I agree 100%, Yereth Rosen will be missed and her firing is our loss. I regularly pointed others, all over the world, to her work. Yereth's work was not just about global warming, but many of the other "canaries in the coal mine" too.

My hope is that at least some of the talent pool that got shoved out the door at ADN will band together and start something new. Given the combined expertise of those who were fired,  a new Alaska news outlet, staffed by seasoned experts would be feasible and sustainable. I'd support such an endeavor with $$ and I think many others would too.
