In a farewell message to former
Creative Loafing (Atlanta) editor Ken Edelstein, staffer Mara Shalhoup writes: "I think I speak for everyone here when I say, 'Thank you for giving me a chance. Thank you for working me hard. And thank you for making
Creative Loafing aim higher. You will be missed.'" Edelstein, who had been with the paper for a decade, was
fired last week after a reportedly "heated meeting" with CEO Ben Eason on implementing editorial cuts.
