Lee Enterprises honors Gwen Florio with an award

[bigforkgriz]

And this is why you don't honor someone until the verdict is in. Jesus Christ she looks like shit right now.

Exactly, and the gang rape turned out to be false as well.

If you actually read the statement about Gewn's work, she takes credit for the firing or resignation of six university employees, as well as sparking two federal investigations and the NCAA's involvement. Wow. :roll:

She should take credit for Williams' thug comments, also. Initially as I read opinions on egriz about Gwen Florio I thought some people were not giving her credit and were jumping to conclusions. I didn't find the reporting that objectionable. However, as time went on and I paid closer attention to her articles I began to change my opinion. The different incidents that happened over time were just that' "different". They were the same in that they involved football players. They became lumped into one category whether they were authentic violations of the law or not. Most people will not look into the nuisances of each incident. They just hear and see the headline. I believe that is why Pat Williams said what he said. The more I read and heard reporting from different sources on the various incidents the more slanted her articles became. I don't believe selling newspapers is her aim. I now believe she has personal agenda that is being fueled by people of like mind. Her reporting is definitely not balanced.

I would not let my dog even shit on a missoulian paper after this, let alone read the dang paper. I will not change my mind until the missoulian gets rid of Gwen. The one thing that I have realised in the last month is how much the press and politicians are in bed together. You can't believe either one of them

Lee Enterprises is another example of those in power living the American dream -- taking pay raises and bonuses in large amounts while the company loses money and its stock flounders. For the first 3 quarters of 2012, Lee lost about 38 million, but I think it rallied slightly in the 4th quarter. But during that 4th quarter, Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffet's group, sold off 2 million shares of Lee. In essence, Lee had a really bad 2012, but how do they respond...CEO Mary Junck's compensation is increased by 82% to something like 2,090,000.00....and the rest of the corporate executives received large pay raises as well. Sort of a sad state of affairs when money losing companies pat themselves on the back and plunder the company assets with pay raises and stock incentives while the stockholders' investments suffer.
