    What precipitated a mass resignation of senior employees at the Santa Barbara News-Press newspaper on July 6, 2006?

    Question #73810. Asked by skysmom65. (Dec 27 06 4:40 PM)

    		"Rob Lowe is a founder of the Homeowner's Defense Fund, a Santa Barbara County non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to local control of land use planning and transparency in government. The average price of tract homes in Santa Barbara in early 2006 is $1,500,000, which has motivated some to propose denser housing on existing lots. At the same time Lowe opposes new housing for others, he has sought to build a very large mansion for himself at 700 Picacho Lane in Montecito. Lowe's protest over the appearance of the address in the Santa Barbara News-Press precipitated a mass resignation of senior employees at that newspaper on July 6, 2006."
