The EDITOR works for the PUBLISHER, not the other way 'round. The PUBLISHER hires and fires the folks in charge of circulation.Which is why all of this nonsense we keep hearing about the 'Chinese Wall' between the editorial side and the advertising side in publishing is so silly.
When the managing editor of the New York Times can be given the boot, in part due to disagreements with the paper's chief executive over 'native advertising', it suddenly becomes obvious how this particular sausage is made.
As print media goes into its final death throes I'm sure things will get even worse.
A local newspaper here in San Francisco just did an editorial house-cleaning over a less-than-complementary piece on an Indian Casino forgetting that the Indian Casino in questions spent about 20K-40K a year on advertising. Editors were given the choice by the publisher of making up the losses out of their pay or writing a major 'fluff' piece in an attempt to woo back the advertiser.
Chinese Wall indeed!
First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
