The Washington Post noted a sad milestone this week:a media company is getting rid of 3 Pulitzer-winner editorial cartoonists in the latest whacks at journalism jobs.

But when the Post names McClatchy as the company doing the firing, it's letting the real culprit -- the owner of McClatchy, a financial operator called Chatham Asset Management -- off the hook. Chatham is one of the hedge-fund / private equity outfits systematically looting what's left of local news.
