Given the admittedly bitter, bad-tasting "I told you so" feeling I've been harboring since this story broke, I was trying to work up the energy to do a post.
Sam beat me to it - and he did it well.
I don't think this city . . . the city where my Father was born & raised . . . the city where my brother and I were born . . . the city where my Mother and I got our undergraduate educations . . . can truly move ahead until the Greensboro News & Record can say, "We got it wrong".
It's not the first time. Yet they cannot figure out why they are dying.
There needs to a cleaning of the house . . . a pruning at the top . . . a reorganization . . . a buy-out . . . something.
This newspaper and its editorial board have not served the citizenry well.
I am scratching my head over one thing. I don't know how Jerry Bledsoe could do a book that's more "in depth" than what he's already published in the Rhino (how many installments are we on?).
But if he writes the book, I'll put it in my library - right beside Death By Journalism.
Truth does matter.

Can we say When hell freezes over?
The likelihood that John or anyone else at the N&R will say they were wrong is more like hell freezing over twice. Now how likely is this to happen?
Not holding my breath in the hot air;)
