Idaho Falls Paper Fires Dean Miller
Post Register Publisher Roger Plothow fired Executive Editor Dean Miller on Wednesday, citing a desire "to change the direction of the paper a little bit." A veteran of three decades in Idaho journalism, Miller began his career at the Twin Falls Times-News. He moved to the Spokesman-Review of Spokane, Wash., where he manned the newspaper's Sandpoint bureau and later its full-time office in Boise. In 1995, he was named city editor of the Post Register and was promoted to executive editor a year and a half later. In August 2007, Miller began a nine-month fellowship at Harvard University in Boston, returning to the Post Register last summer. Miller's removal comes at a time when many newspapers are reducing staff sizes and cutting budgets/Corey Taule, Idaho Falls Post-Register. More here.
Question: Do any of you remember former Idaho Falls editor Dean Miller (shown above in Boise in 1994) when he was running the now-closed Sandpoint office of the Spokesman-Review and later serving as our Boise bureau chief?
