Does Rick Bell's garbage really appeal to anyone? Does it sell papers? I mean, the guy has been spewing spin for umpteen years and still he is a mainstay for the Sun, but I just can't seem to wrap my head around it.


Anyone know if the form is in place yet? Last I read it should be in by now, with pourings starting in the coming weeks.
I'm not a Sun reader but Bell has done some good things in terms of investigative journalism. He uncovered the city auditor issues a few years ago for example, and when he does things like that he often doesn't get the credit. Part of the reason is his use of "silly hall" and things like it. I've talked to him myself and seen him speak....honestly he has a lot more to say than you might expect. I know I was much more impressed than where I expected to be.

No, that doesn't mean he got things right in this tunnel article (I didn't read it/watch it). I just think he is a little better than people give him credit for.
