The
Voice parted ways yesterday with Hentoff, who has worked for the paper since 1958, as well as Lynn Yaeger, who has been there for about 30 years, and staff writer Chloe Hilliard. The 83-year-old Hentoff tells the
New York Times that he will keep writing his weekly column for the United Media syndicate and contributing pieces to
The Wall Street Journal. Layoffs are also being reported at one of the
Voice's sister papers on the other coast.

OC Weekly has laid off managing editor Rich Kane, clubs editor Nate Jackson and staff writer Vickie Chang.
