Drex Heikes To Step Down As LA Weekly Editor
Heikes joined the Weekly in 2009 after a successful stint as editor of the innovative Las Vegas Sun. He was part of a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigation at the Sun that detailed the unsafe -- and often lethal -- underbelly of the Las Vegas construction boom in the early 2000s.
Heikes was also the former editor of the L.A. Times Magazine.
