Remember The Whistleblower? Now THAT was good journalism! I'm pretty sure the guy who wrote it ended up in jail, but I think it is time for a revival.

Now I Understand.

I am sorry but you cant call the Whistle blower "journalism" it was trash, trash written by a man who lacked a soul. Feel fortunate he no longer lives in this town.

I heard he choked to death on a turkey bone.

Wasn't he in jail for some very nasty activities? Or did they lock him up in Warm Springs. At any rate, he was insane and vicious. There is hard core investigative journalism and he was a certifiable lunatic who attacked people. BIG difference.

The one thing I've really notice on the forums is that people just don't know how to take a joke...I realize it is hard to convey sarcasm in writing, but seriously folks, it isn't that hard to figure it out!

I heard he caught the bird flu and died.

Olivia,

How to indicate sarcasm in a medium such as this? Easy, like this:

/sarcasm on
remarks, comments, other inannities and dribbling.
/sarcasm off

Using the above technique makes your intentions clear to even the most inexperienced reader.

Thanks! I think that is actually a pretty good idea!

I heard he licked a poisonous toad and it killed him.

If you knew the Whistleblower at all you would know why the "joke" is so offensive, but I am game.....I heard he died from a house falling on him.

I missed something. What joke is offensive?

Olivia,

If you knew anyone who he attacked you wouldn't think that was very funny.

Sorry Monty, I was not referring to you, your jokes are completely appropriate.
