Priorities

Poetic summary of the St. Augustine Record this week:
How many column inches this week over a misdemeanor bar fracas?   
Dozens.
How many front page articles this week over a misdemeanor bar fracas?
Three.
How many column inches devoted to press releases? 
Lots.
How many column inches investigating anything that matters (e.g., Big Business and Big Government)? 
Nada.  Zilch.
Having a newspaper that won't cover the news? 
Priceless, if you're a developer or corrupt official.
Perilous, if you're a citizen in these trying times.
It's time to put the "news" back in newspapers.
What do you reckon?
