Just another glowing (or should I say glaring) example at what passes for "journalism" at local news outlets.
Does this reporter
A. Have a basic grasp of English grammar? (How many errors can you spot in the six sentence item?)
B. Have any idea of the four W's of journalism? ( first four W's of
journalism: — who, what, where, and when).
About the only thing missing was the media's standard "no passengers were injured" line.
Maybe this was the same reporter who, in a story about the December PHL baggage fiasco, wrote that a woman had to attend her wedding rehearsal in a bathing suit because her bag was missing. (What happened to the clothes she wore on the flight, Mr/Ms Ace Reporter?)
On a much more serious note on the subject of ramp safety: Apparently there was a serious ramp accident in DCA Sunday night. "Let's be careful out there!"
