Flash: Gordon gone!

This just in.

I am told by a reliable source that Gordon Jackson is no longer with the Times Union. Apparently, his last day was last Friday. He reportedly fell victim to a sizable staff reduction at the T.U.

It should be interesting to see what effect his no longer being "useful" has upon his, uh, social life.

Surprisingly, I'm told that the T.U. does not plan to maintain a reporter in Camden any longer.

Not sure whose orbit news in Camden will fall under now. Brunswick, I suppose.

More as I learn it.

Update: I just checked the GTU website. The last thing published with Gordon's by-line was published at 12:00 AM on Friday, Dec. 5th. He no doubt wrote it on Thursday. My guess is that he was completely blindsided on Friday. Happy Holidays from you old friends at the T.U.

I am so sorry to see Gordon gone. If you find out where he is, will you please let us know, Jay?

Sure.

All I had were his phone number and e-mail at the paper.
