Ken Tucker, one of the founding staffers of Entertainment Weekly, is taking a buyout.
Jess Cagle, the magazine's managing editor, said Tucker was on the startup team that launched EW in 1989. Tucker announced his move in a tweet:
So, yes, I'm leaving @ew, my home base since 1989. Had a great time helping launch that super-fine mag/website. Time to write elsewhere.

Tucker's fans quickly weighed in:
Huge respect to @kentucker, as he departs EW: A man who writes better about everything than most people can write about anything.
