News The importance of print media exemplified

I think it's worth taking a moment from laughing at their informercials to note that, without the excellent work of the AJC's news staff in general, and reporter D.L. Bennett in particular, no one would have noticed DeKalb County's property tax shenanigans, and DeKalb CEO Burrell Ellis might not have stepped in to clean up the mess.

Yes there are a few reporters left worth their salt, especially Bennett, Mary Lou P and Torpy. But hopefully they're smart enough to use their lofty journalistic positions to get themselves in front of Atlanta's movers and shakers to find alternative employment. I care about these folks and their jobs are miserable. They work for the worst major metro news leadership in the entire USA, if not the world, Wallace and Roughton. My heart goes out to them (the remaining reporters, that is; I would subscribe tomorrow if they fired Wallace and Roughton).
