I’m not the one getting paid to cover the news in Sacramento. If I was, you can bet that the initial story would have included Sacramento-specific data from the local FBI office that took me one phone call and 3 minutes to obtain.

I’m just pointing out the fact that the Bee should be doing a better job of reporting news than some schlep laying on his bed in his underwear. Any moron can copy information from a press release, stick it in the newspaper and call themselves a “journalist”.

Er…I’m not sure why you think beating the Bee at posting a FBI press release by an hour (they had the AP article up at 5:21 pm) is something to gloat about…twice. Did you not read the Bee’s extensive article on May 18, 2008, which covered the SacPD’s partnership with the FBI and their workin cracking down on the local prostitution market? Sure, the fact that yesterday was the 5th anniversary of the Innocence Project and was the day that the FBI announced their nationwide results thus far (the arrests, obviously, weren’t made that day) is interesting. But I’m not so sure that the Bee not immediately posting about the 5th year anniversary constitutes neglect on their part in covering the prostitution problem in Sacramento.

And almost 24 hours later, the Sacramento Bee finally surpasses the SacRag with their level of detail regarding the local aspects of this story.
