Wipeout
Editor:
Can the North Coast Journal reporters manage to find a way not to go after each other? Spare us the preachy condemnations of Bob Doran for not outing his wife to a raging mob and the outing (twice in one article) of Jennifer Savage, who obviously prefers to keep her surfing spots private.
Surely you can find a few true scoundrels in the community who are far more deserving of your wrath than your fellow reporters.
Gordon Inkeles, Arcata
Ed. reply: Doubtful.
Sweet Spot: Tough choices — this is maybe the best NCJ letters column ever. In the end, though, we’re going to have to reward Jeff Powers’ haiku-like simplicity and purity of purpose. He wins a Bon Boniere sundae for sending our favorite letter of the week.*
