A Chattanooga newspaper has fired an editor for a headline that told President Obama to take his jobs plan and "shove it."

Idiots: Editor fired over Obama headline 1375386556000-AP-Obama-Congress-005-1308011550_4_3

The announcement from the paper:

"Free Press editor Drew Johnson has been terminated after placing a headline on an editorial outside of normal editing procedures.

"Johnson's headline, 'Take your jobs plan and shove it, Mr. President: Your policies have harmed Chattanooga enough,' appeared on the Free Press page Tuesday, the day President Barack Obama visited the city.

"The headline was inappropriate for this newspaper. It was not the original headline approved for publication, and Johnson violated the normal editing process when he changed the headline. The newspaper's decision to terminate Johnson had nothing to do with the content of the editorial, which criticized the president's job creation ideas and Chattanooga's Smart Grid. The Free Press page has often printed editorials critical of the president and his policies.

"The Chattanooga Times Free Press is unique in that it has two editorial pages, the conservative Free Press page and the liberal Times page. This newspaper places high value on expressions of divergent opinion, but will not permit violations of its standards."
