Wendy McCaw, owner of the now-bankrupt Santa Barbara News-Press, today was found in contempt of a U.S. District Court judgment dating to 2017. The fight between the daily paper’s owner and the union the employees organized continues to trail clouds of legal documents, the most recent issued on July 26 by U.S. Magistrate G. Michael Harvey of the D.C. District Court. He found the News-Press’s parent company, Ampersand Publishing LLC, in civil contempt of the judgment imposed in 2017 in favor of the National Labor Relations Board.
