Newport News/Williamsburg Airport Executive Director Terminated

NEWPORT NEWS—On Monday, February 12, Newport News/Williamsburg Airport Executive Director Michael Giardino was asked to leave the post he had occupied for five years by the Peninsula Airport Commission (PAC).

The commission’s chair, Lindsey Carney Smith, voted in favor of terminating Giardino along with commissioners Tommy Garner, Sharon Scott, and Jennifer Smith. Jay Joseph was the sole vote against the firing. Brian Kelly, the sixth member of the commission, reportedly resigned on January 30 because he was unhappy about the commission questioning Giardino’s performance.

The New Local News Model

On July 1, we started a new way to pay for news. Yes, we want you to subscribe, but we know nobody subscribes to every site they visit just because there's a paywall.

So if you don't want to subscribe (even at the low price of $39.99 for a year), you can pay for access to individual articles. Or just buy a 24-hour pass, as if you were buying a single copy of a newspaper. We use a new payment service called Transact, which lets you pay for individual articles in as little as three seconds. And you will get $3 in credit when you sign up (just an email address, no credit card required), which will let you pay for at least 20 articles.

This is new for everyone, so we're going to ease you into this. Initially, there won't be many articles that you have to pay for. Short ones will always be free. And even the longer stories will let you read the first half or so for free. We'd love to hear what you think, so send us a note at feedback@peninsulachronicle.com.
