Janna Herron, a former business reporter for the Associated Press, sent a farewell e-mail on Friday as her parting shot that criticized business news management at the wire service.
The e-mail was posted on Romenesko.

“I’m the 56th person to leave since the newsroom’s management style turned negative and mean-spirited three years ago. And I’m sure I’m not the last. I just couldn’t do it anymore.
“So, best wishes to everyone. You’re all better editors, reporters and writers than what you’ve been told, and you deserve better leadership.”
