Former Staff Cartoonist Steve Kelley Sues Union-Tribune And Various Staffers

I totally missed this one late last week, but apparently Steve Kelley of the New Orleans Times-Picayune has sued his former employer the San Diego Union-Tribune and several of its staffers for what he feels is undue pressure placed on current U-T cartoonist Steve Breen that led to him leaving a partnership with Kelley on a strip in development at United Features. Apparently the deal fell apart after Breen's departure from the feature. The general response from the defense seems to be a) never did it, and b) if we did, we're certainly allowed to compete for Breen's services.
