The alt-weekly Sacramento News & Review, editorless in recent weeks after Nancy Brands Ward left the paper, has a new executive editor: Matt Coker.
Coker, who held a similar position at the OC Weekly, is the latest to leave that publication after it was bought by New Times.
Here's a link to the blog, LA Observed, which obtained a copy of Coker's memo to the OC Weekly staff.
If Coker brings his OC Weekly sensibilities up north, it could infuse SN&R with a much-needed shot of snarkiness. And what's an alt-weekly without bite, we ask? Among the popular OC Weekly features under Coker: "ĦAsk a Mexican!" and "Commie Girl."
