The Eugene Weekly, a longstanding free newspaper in Oregon, ceased publication and laid off its staff due to significant financial damage caused by an employee's embezzlement. The theft resulted in unpaid bills and unmet financial obligations, including $70,000 owed to the printer and unfulfilled employee retirement contributions. Despite the setback and ongoing police investigation, the newspaper's editor and community supporters are determined to revive the publication, with fundraising efforts already underway.
