Former Beacon Journal classical music critic Donald Rosenberg lost his lawsuit against the Plain Dealer over removing him from its classical musical beat.
The Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court jury on Friday rejected the lawsuit brought by Rosenberg against the PD and Cleveland Orchestra management after being reassigned over complaints of negative reviews of Franz Welser-Möst, the orchestra’s music director.
Said Rosenberg: “I stood up for what I believed. I don’t regret a moment of it.”
The trial lasted four weeks.
