Chron Writer Takes Out Ad in Examiner

Have you seen page 9 of today's Examiner yet? Well, you should. Chron staff writer Delfin Vigil took out an ad criticizing Hearst in its threat to close down the SF Chronicle. And the ad involves bolding AND underlining. And it's in print. Not online. Yes, we're serious. (We'll have it scanned and posted shortly.) He was also on KNBR this morning talking about it too. You can hear the podcast of Vigil's chat here. While the scribe is understandably upset over the paper's demise, sources tell us Vigil was also peeved at being passed over as editor for 96 Hours, SF Chronicle's Thursday arts & events-ish section. His anger, it seems, has reached a breaking point.
