Twelve inoffensive men
“It’s right in the middle of our budget time, and we have a brand-new publisher here,” Somerville said. “He put it on the to-do pile and didn’t get back to them, and they went to the Reporter.”
Whoops! But Somerville makes a good point when he asks why the grand jury didn’t distribute copies of the report to all media at the same time. We at the Journal got our copy on Friday, but we had been hounding them for it. The foreman dropped it off at our office on his way to the airport. He said he really liked last week’s story on a Hydesville church.
So we got ours, but we fully support Somerville’s quest to develop a more even-handed system for distributing the thing in the future. Anything else smacks of preferential treatment by a governmental body. If the T-S is unable to come to terms with the grand jury on this matter, perhaps Somerville should file a complaint with the grand jury.
