The number of my former co-workers who remain at The Des Moines Register has taken a hit this year. No fewer than four (that I know of) have checked out in six weeks. That includes columnist Kyle Munson, whose last day is today.
Besides the column he wrote about me last year after I finished visiting every town in Iowa, my parents made a cameo appearance when he wrote about a movie being filmed in Tama County.
Munson has done two interviews with Iowa Public Radio about his departure.
(A comparison between the early 2015 staff directory and the ones three years before and after would be illuminating.)
Whenever I do get to that last mile in Correctionville, who am I going to tell?
