For the third time in recent months, a respected old-media film critic has been downgraded or shown the door at a major daily: the word broke two or three hours ago that Jamie Bernard ‘s contract will not be renewed at the N.Y. Daily News , and I’m very sorry. A tough break, but print regulars are probably going to be dealing with turbulent upheaval for months and years to come. It’s shake-up time, sorry to say. I took a train to Connecticut around 3:30 this afternoon and ran around a bit, and when I finally got online I read the news about Bernard.
