I especially agree with your council meeting caveat. Traffic, gas prices, sports opinion...no problem. But for real news that requires an understanding of human nature and the habit of obfuscation by public officials, you need trained journalists who are already vetted. I don't want my school committee meeting reports coming from Mary Smith of Sparrow Lane. How do I know she's not angry at the Supt. for keeping her son in detention? Heading now to read part three. Good stuff! Good comments and points. I especially agree with your council meeting caveat. Traffic, gas prices, sports opinion…no problem.
