Ms. Philips' answers are troubling because she is a journalist for whom duplicity and ethics seem entirely too compatible.Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01973857904934080704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876661997317409023.post-74280940401588228122013-11-27T23:01:38.518-05:002013-11-27T23:01:38.518-05:00Thanks Tom and Doug for the kind words.

After what happened during the bankruptcy and auction, I knew I couldn't count on the Inky to report honestly on itself. So many compromises have been made down there that I don't think anybody's too concerned about making more compromises. The end justifies the means. bigtrial.nethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12188557653424544411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876661997317409023.post-64113408751802449042013-11-27T19:50:34.050-05:002013-11-27T19:50:34.050-05:00Ralph, you make the profession proud.

The latter asks: How are we going to tell this story, even though he knows what the truth is. The other automatically thinks that she can find something better than the truth. I'm disappointed in both. But the greater damage is to the always shaky reputation of journalists everywhere, many of whom spend entire careers struggling to bring out the truth.doug campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10135570947249959776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8876661997317409023.post-60887854601577858922013-11-27T07:55:50.002-05:002013-11-27T07:55:50.002-05:00A terrific piece--nobody comes off sounding good. ...A terrific piece--nobody comes off sounding good.

If he can't control you then he makes sure he PUNISHES you and your FAMILY like he is some MOB BOSS. The first thing he does get you "FIRED" "FIRED" "FIRED" from your JOB. Norcross ATTACKS JOBS and makes sure you don't have one. He controls local, municipal and State Jobs and has his long standing Civil Service workers that are always plotting and planning how they can get you dismissed or destroy, especially if you are a Governors Appointment.
