This is a letter I sent to the Mount Pleasant News today: Dear MP news This is an excerpt from your 12/24/07 article about David Heaton running for re election I'm not kidding, it reads: Heaton has been a strong voice for small businesses and an effective leader on health and human services issues. He is eager to continue his commitment to the people of House District 91. are you kidding me? Who on earth wrote this? You don't have to be a journalism graduate to know this is awful, lazy journalism. either number 1.) the writer is in the bag for Heaton - which I don't think he or she is. or 2.) the writer is simply lazy - It's almost as if he or she took words literally off of his press release, and cut and paste it onto a hard news piece. EXCUSE me. but I am a graduate of journalism and I know you are NEVER supposed to write sentences like "Heaton has been a strong voice for small businesses....." You are SUPPOSED to write, Heaton SAID he has been a strong voice..... give me a break you guys, your supposed to be professional If I see a massive oversight like this again - where whole articles are written this bad, Your going to catch hell with my phone call.

Dear MP news

This is an excerpt from your 12/24/07 article about David Heaton running for re election

I’m not kidding, it reads:
Heaton has been a strong voice for small businesses and an effective leader on health and human services issues. He is eager to continue his commitment to the people of House District 91.

are you kidding me? Who on earth wrote this? You don’t have to be a journalism graduate to know this is awful, lazy journalism.

either number 1.) the writer is in the bag for Heaton - which I don’t think he or she is.

or 2.) the writer is simply lazy - It’s almost as if he or she took words literally off of his press release, and cut and paste it onto a hard news piece.

EXCUSE me. but I am a graduate of journalism and I know you are NEVER supposed to write sentences like “Heaton has been a strong voice for small businesses…..” You are SUPPOSED to write, Heaton SAID he has been a strong voice…..

give me a break you guys, your supposed to be professional

If I see a massive oversight like this again - where whole articles are written this bad, Your going to catch hell with my phone call.
