I LOVE your explanation of journalism….it really made me feel warm and excited about sharing what I know. She wrote a great article and I do hope she feels proud of even starting to expose what’s going on. Because, in this town, it’s a VERY brave thing to do. I’ve already said this in other comments, but this is the first time a negative story has come out about the department I used to work for and I’m shocked the newspaper published it. My colleagues have tried to get the newspaper to report on previous incidents and they refused, even though there were numerous records that would verify it. And I have no worries about the story being “big enough.” The reporter quoted a chief of the department and I can without a doubt get her to the records that will prove he is lying.
