Fair and Balanced Reporting Part 2

I quote from a recent newspaper article about a man who was falsely accused but was cleared of any connection to the accusations. “He says he feels like the woman in the local paper who, whatever she does, will always be remembered for one thing: “Mrs. Jones, who was falsely accused of the ax murder of her husband in 1994, recently had a garden party for 10 of her friends.”

The JSEB for a while used to put a tag line on anything they said about me. “He was also opposed to the Highway to Chicago.” Wasn’t it the JS blow hard, “heavy” school partying male reporter and school teacher who said he only did “fair and balanced reporting” when he brings up the past linking people never charged in incidents in which there was no case?
