Bitter La Jolla divorce burns hotter
Don Bauder, I have no reason to think that what you wrote is fake news. I only commented because I remember you well from the SD UNION, and the piece on Dianne Goldman seemed so out of character.— June 18, 2017 9:43 p.m.

David Copley, 60, dead in La Jolla car crash
Here's a piece from The Reader about Morgan being fired in 2004. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/weblogs/news-ticker…— November 25, 2012 1:15 p.m.

Apparently he did make business decisions and give editorial direction.— November 25, 2012 1:08 p.m.
David Copley, 60, dead in La Jolla car crash
It's interesting that everything I've read about David Copley since his death is either "pro" (his philanthropy) or "con" (his self-indugence), but no one seems to remember the moment that defined his true character. David Copley was rich because his mother Helen (then a secretary at the San Diego Union) married Jim Copley, and Jim Copley adopted David. Neil Morgan, then an editor at the San Diego Union, was the matchmaker who fostered the union between Helen and Jim. And what did David do after he took over the paper? In an act of supreme ingratitude, he fired Morgan - "Mr. San Diego," an award-winning journalist and civic booster who changed the course of Helen's (and therefore David's) life. I think it's a waste of time to discuss all the ways that David Copley wreaked havoc in his own life. The firing of Neil Morgan was the defining moment that showed the true nature of his deeply flawed character.— November 23, 2012 11:22 p.m.
