‘Spokane mafia’ takes Memphis by storm?
In the "whatever happened to ..." dept., ex-S-R editor Chris Peck (pictured) has run into turbulence as editor of the Memphis (Tenn.) Commercial Appeal. First, there's labor negotiation and layoff problems here. Then, there's a resentment by his staff about former Spokane staffers who've been added to the payroll, including ex-S-R ME Scott Sines, ex-photo editor John Sale, ex-graphics editor John Nelson and ex-food critic Leslie Kelly. In fact, someone has made up a Web site suggesting Peck & Co. go back to Spokane where they'd fit in better here.
