Welland -1

The Welland Tribune lost another employee this week.

A TSF tipster says Stephen Carroll, the ad manager, was let go Monday.

"Publisher Ken Koyama has taken over as ad manager on an interim basis," says the tipster.

Remaining staff at the former Osprey newspaper must be feeling like punching bags.

It has not been a good year for the Tribune.

Its presses were silenced recently, with printing going to the Toronto plant;

Its sponsorship of boys and girls basketball tournaments has been axed;

Its Port Colborne office has been reduced to a satellite office;

Eight employees were pink slipped in December;

They lost their second-floor newsroom water cooler, temporarily.
