In a stunning, unforseen move...

GRANT ALEKSANDER has been released from his contract and duties at the blog, effective immediately. During the latest episode an "IN the LIGHT" with Beth Chamberlin as Phillip's true love and ex-wife, readers learned that Phillip was killed, "how is still a mystery." Says blog head writer Josh Hawkins. "The decision to remove Aleksander from the canvas was difficult but the stories that it opens up for the survivors was to good to pass up." Hawkins continued.

To mourn the fallen Spaulding look for special appearances by Krista Tesreau (See Story) and Mary Kay Adams [india] who will both be attending Phillip's funeral, slated for later this week. Cast and crew were devestated to hear about the news, but knows the show must continue.
