Cynthia Tucker leaving Georgia

According to the AJC, Cynthia Tucker resigned as AJC editorial page editor and is moving to Washington DC, where she will write a political column twice a week.

Seems like a step down to me career-wise but perhaps since rabid conservitard Jim Wooten is being put out to pasture she feels her work on the editorial pages is done.

I noticed Bob Barr is getting one editorial a week now, too.

Cynthia Tucker's "Resignation"

I seem to remember reading an "open letter" a month or so ago from the AJC's Editor-in-Chief. In that letter, the EiC was sharing the results of a survey of AJC readers that was being used to determine the changes (aka downsizing) that would be taking place at the AJC.

Reading between the lines, I sensed Cynthia Tucker's days at the AJC might be numbered. "Reassignment" or "resignation" are probably the tactful ways of dismissing a Pulitzer Prize winner.

Considering the content of most of her columns I've read in the AJC, I think she's been on Obama's payroll for a long time.
