Antigua staff back at work at Stanford-owned paper

Taiwan News Online: "The staff of a daily newspaper owned by jailed Texas financier Allen Stanford is still putting out the paper despite an announcement that it would close, an editor said Monday.
Employees of the Antigua Sun returned without pay because they want to keep the daily in the public's eye, managing editor Timothy Payne said. He said several financing options are being considered to keep the newspaper afloat but did not provide details.

Monday's 16-page edition did not mention the paper's financial problems or the staff decision to continue working.

Employees received letters Friday from the Stanford-owned Sun Printing & Publishing saying the company could no longer sustain operations and they were being laid off immediately."
