Sounds like quite a commotion.

It'll be interesting to see what happens at the press conference.

I'd immediately fire anybody who spelled corrupt "kurupt."

I am sure the writer intentionally used slang.

I'm not so sure. That is probably the crappiest press release I've ever read.

Not only is the formatting unforgivable, it doesn't even provide a time or location for the new press conference.

What's the point?

I guess they are just trying to get the word out as soon as possible.

I know Maria Saporta and David Pendered. They are two of the most professional, ethical and connected journalists in the city. If they felt strong enough to publicly separate themselves from this moron, you can bet their reasons were beyond valid.

Sadly, in this era of "anybody" blogs and Twitter news, there are scores of people out there who think they are journalists just because they have an audience -- but in reality they don't have one clue what JOURNALISM really is. This sounds like a classic example.
