Looking at The Drum’s Top 100 Scottish Power List - basically the movers and shakers (registration required) - and while there’s some really interesting comments (more later), one piece of news really stuck out.
Placed at Number 65 is the following: Charles McGhee, Editor, Evening Times.
Now given that he handed in his notice from The Herald on Friday - the same day The Drum came out - was this a mistook by The Drum (McGhee edited The Evening Times before he was at The Herald) or does it have a genuine scoop and he’s going back there?

Just saw this on the AllMediaScotland newly-launched Tweet Service - apparently Charles McGhee has departed from The Herald, leaving the paper without an editor the week before the Glasgow East byelection.

More news as I hear it…no doubt some people will be sad at this, while some will be rejoicing. What isn’t known as of yet is why he left.

UPDATE
UPDATE: Hold the Front Page has tweeted and put up more info on this page, complete with statement.

UPDATE 2: The Guardian has weighed in, again with the suggestion that McGhee left because of the ongoing cuts, which may or may not be the case, but it seems strange to me that he leaves right after the last round of redundancies (which I hear saw some staff rejected, despite their pleas to leave) unless he was told that there was going to be another round of cuts right away.
