I think it's valid to report who or what an influential member of the administration is blaming -- without evidence -- for an apparent attack.

Everyone likes those, though. Our 4-H profiles during fair week are very well read.

I'll take a good reporter I have to clean up over a great writer with no reporting chops any day.

During budget season, I assigned a reporter to look into a request for new chairs for city council and this show is basically a documentary.
