Sounds like BS to me.  Yesse's other papers are in Springfield, IL, Dayton, 
OH, Iowa City (now shut down), Bloomington IN and Indianapolis.  Of those, 
which one seems less conservative than C-U?  Maybe Iowa City is a little 
more liberal, but none of the others, at least according to my perceptions.

Sounds like a good excuse to mask corporate mismanagement, though.
