BANG replaces president and publisher

The president and publisher of the Bay Area News Group, John Armstrong, is being replaced on Oct. 15, according to reports from the Constra Costa Times.
Taking over will be David Rounds, vice president of circulation for the San Jose Mercury News.
The story says that the company's leadership decided that Armstrong "didn't have the skill set that really was a good fit for the company as it moves forward."
From the story:

Michael "Mac" Tully, president and publisher of the Mercury News and group vice president for Bay Area News Group, or BANG, made the announcement before a crowded Contra Costa Times newsroom that, along with the other East Bay papers, has seen dozens of layoffs and employee buyouts this year as the newspaper industry flails under a limp economy and changing reader habits...Tully, former publisher of the Kansas City Star who took over leadership of BANG early this year, declined to elaborate on the decision to replace Armstrong, saying only that he had needed time to assess the operation.
