I just read your article in Jayson Blair - excellent writing. Concise, well-organized, and intelligent. Very nice work. You write better than most of the pros employed by the newspapers I see around here.

And a very telling quote from his article:

"One Times staffer quoted in the May 19th issue of Newsweek described the situation by saying: "We have, generally, a horribly undiverse staff. And so we hold up and promote the few black staffers we have."

BTW, Jay Leno: "Arnold was declared the winner at 8:01. See that, Florida? At least WE can count!"

I'd give my left arm to write like that!!!

(I'd give my right, but I'm right handed)

Wow.. BRAVO again Stephen!!

I still say you need to resign up here, and post anonymously. We all do. Just some motherly advice.

(W/exception of Jim Robinson that is.)
