Chicago Magazine reports that 75 Chicago Reader staffers and freelancers have signed a letter in support of Patrick Arden, the newspaper's managing editor who was fired Jan. 15. However, the letter does not ask for Arden's reinstatement, the magazine reports. Jane Levine, publisher of the Reader, tells Chicago Magazine the firing was partly the result of tensions between Arden and Reader Editor Alison True, "but that's not all that it was."
