New Times Executive Editor Mike
Lacey calls Cleveland Free Times'
recent attacks on New Times and
Cleveland Scene "an explosion of
bluster." Lacey accuses Free Times'
Editor David Eden and Publisher
Matt Fabyan of concocting
"conspiracies wrapped in an ad
hominem attack" and of publishing
"organ
discharge." He cites sales and profit
figures that starkly contradict Free Times'
assertion that it was winning the
alternative
newsweekly battle in Cleveland.
