Man, I was counting on this for my Sunday takeout. Hurry up and ship it to the copy desk. They re shorthanded. It never lies. You ve got to be careful when a reporter falls in love with a story especially an investigative story.
Love is blind.
You see what you want to see. We don't spot-check. You put a story out there and someone somewhere will have a connection to it and they'll tell us. That kind of climate helps a little helps maintain credibility with readers and lets staff members know complaints will be investigated. They know it s not up to the staff to adjudicate complaints.
