the funniest thing about being a journalist is when you tell someone what you do at a party, they often reply “everything I say is OFF THE RECORD”…….then tell you a wildly un-newsworthy drama about their colleague Jill that wouldn’t even make it into a parish newsletter

Do you remember how you were taught to read?

Dumb Miami story of the day: Media get video, runs video on TV, someone sees video, identifies rapist, rapist arrested -- then City of Miami Beach opens probe into who leaked the video to the media, because it's better to leave a rapist running free than leak a video. Brilliant.
Days after we broke the story of a rollerblader raped and the arrest of a sex offender, Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner recommends prosecuting and subpoenaing city employees who give info to the media.
Our coverage and surveillance video helped cops catch the suspect. @wsvn
