I appreciate the comments. It's true most of the things I know I've read in the paper. If the paper was not privately owned, I would be contacting the owning national company If I lived in Lancaster with my concerns about the use of the coroner's web site and password by their "jounalists". The Sun-Sentinel here in Fort Lauderdale is owned by the Tribune. (They are trying to sell Tribune properties, not sure if all the papers are involved) The Sun-Sentinel is a money maker for the Tribune because we have about three sections every Saturday that are ads for real estate. Full page ads for developments of townhomes, condos, etc. so they make money off of our paper because of the advertizing it contains. Most newspapers today are not in good financial shape. That aside, as far as the politicians go, you violate the Sunshine Law, do the stuff with the sale of Connestoga, and now the coroner and the password, I don't care who did what, get rid of them. It's as simple as that. You're not credible to decide what they did was OK because you support them on some issues (the convention center), because what they did is NEVER OK.

Go Homeschoolers! I kan spel!

Perhaps if grammar was your specialty, you'd have some effect with that statement.

OK, New Era, this was a baby step towards journalism.
Now how about an interview with Justin Quinn for some facts.
