Lauren Stich
Lauren Stich has been let go by the Daily Racing Form. She is the latest budget cut victim at the paper. Her last column is in today's edition. I spoke with Lauren this morning and she is understandably upset.
If anyone else is as dissapointed in this decision as I am and wants to make their feelings known, you can send an email to the 3 people who made this decision: Rich Rosenbush, Editor (rrosenbush@drf.com) Brent Diamond, CEO (bdiamond@drf.com) Steven Crist, Chairman& Publisher (scrist@drf.com) Hopefully, if enough people write in, they will reconsider this terrible decision.

They've removed the sibling summaries from their pp's and now this... The product just keeps getting noticably crappier with every "budget saving" move they make... :mad:
emails are enroute... I seriously may not renew my subscription |
Maybe lowering the online subscription rates or having more subscription options would increase numbers?
I dunno. :rolleyes: |
Steve and Lauren discussed this a couple weeks ago on ATR, and I agree, it's a real shame.
She's built a solid reputation in the industry, and will surely find avenues to work within. It's just too bad she was a victim of budget cuts after being with DRF for so long. |
I enjoyed her pedigree analysis, if anything it brought a little variety to the publication.
|
I like her columns, but she owes me $14.95 for the book that wasted 4 hours of my life

Here's a pretty lame response from Steven Crist when interviewed by John Kelly on the Leroy's Sports Hour in Las Vegas on April 11. He was asked about Lauren leaving DRF:

Not sure why you think that response was lame. . .
|
Crist: "I hope she'll still write for us when she's able to."
What the hell is that supposed to mean. They just let her go. |

Maybe you should ask yourself what he might have been trying to tell you. |
