First Amendment Issue?

Is anyone other than the Oregonian following the story of what the Sherwood School District is doing to drama teacher Jennie Brown?

The O's story is here: http://www.oregonlive.com/education/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/news/12052...

There is probably more to this than we're seeing, but on the surface, it has the trappings of some of the attempts to muzzle editors of high school and university newspapers.

Ex-OMI Watch: Mak to CRISTA Ministries

Submitted by LynnS on Thu, 03/13/2008 - 12:50pm.

Totally missed this. Via pdxradio, we see that ex-CBS cluster manager Stan Mak has landed at CRISTA Ministries, a religious broadcaster in Seattle, as VP/GM of the station group that includes KCMS 105.3, KCIS 630AM, and PRAISE 106.5:

“Stan has a history of managing multi-station clusters and is known for his strategic thinking as well as his ‘building leaders’ and ‘compassionate management’ style. Throughout his 27 years in broadcast management Stan has left his mark of increasing value to those stations he has managed”, says Bob Lonac, President & CEO of CRISTA.

He started 2/2/08.

[Edited to correct the spelling of Stan's first name--it was a typo.--L]
