Just another note on the Eckersley affair and journalistic integrity

It's enough of an obligation that citizens must question their government constantly, but when citizens are forced to question the press whose duty it is to question and cover that government it is likely more of an obligation than a good citizen has time to bear. It is for that reason that journalistic integrity should be, no, MUST be an issue.

It's strikes me as peculiar, Jacke...

Mr. Messenger is all over this e-mail issue which involves our Republican governor....

-

Yet, when Developer Baier changes his story regarding the Expo Center area bidding...

...Mr. Messenger has absolutely no curiosity.

-

The city sells a $12 million dollar garage (to John Q. Hammons) for $7 million, and throws in the property for nothing...

Messenger is indifferent...

I think it's fascinating that Mr. Messenger doesn't care to see the city staff's phone records, e-mails, snail mails... nor any other record of correspondence... nor any documentation of the city staff's meetings...

Not to get too personal, but until we see some journalistic integrity from our bestubbled doughboy and his SNL, I imagine News Leader sales will continue to dwindle...

Just my opinion...
