Thomas Klebanow

Played by David Costabile

Moderately vain, mostly nebbish, Klebanow is the Managing Editor of The Baltimore Sun. Having worked in Philadelphia with Executive Editor James C. Whiting III, he ends up doing most of Whiting's dirty work. With belt-tightening and cutbacks at the paper, this means Klebanow is charged with offering buy-outs and making his team do more with less. He has a weakness for attractive young female reporters with questionable writing skills.
