    Maybe it's because I don't like the guy...but isn't this wrong?

    hmmm, looks like SOMEONE (aka a TV guy!) is taking credit for someone else's work...I think they have a name for that!

    OHL? Saginaw? Petersborough? Petes?

    I didn't understand anything in this story. It's like it's in another language. What sport are they talking about? Curling?

    Not a story I'd take credit for even if I did write it.

    That's the most egregious example of the p-word I've ever seen. Every freaking word was the same except the "The Examiner has learned" clause in the lede graf.

    That TV Boy failed to delete the "Twohey declined to comment when contacted by The Examiner Tuesday" line pretty much seals his fate.

    Blow up Parliament? Or are you not talking about the Sinn Fein leader?

    Good catch. That's the only thing about this thread I've understood so far.
