Perhaps demonstrating, once and for all, that the LA Times doesn't get the internet or the blogosphere, the Times has fired columnist/blogger (and Pulitzer Prize winner) Michael Hiltzik for...using a pseudonym when he comments at other blogs. Being a monopoly allows you to do stuff like that.

Sounds to me that if he's losing his columnist gig, then he was fired. If a manager of a baseball team loses his job, but is "reassigned within the organization" to be, lets say, a scout, he's still fired, no matter what sort of cosmetic change the team wants to use.
