I used to have a bumper-sticker that read, "If it matters to Oregonians, it's in the Washington Post".MAX Redlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040240474444763721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17669835.post-25025190286386589502013-06-24T18:05:41.667-07:002013-06-24T18:05:41.667-07:00Max, you're right.

And funny for Richard Read to win the Oregonian a pulitzer for that. http://www.pulitzer.org/archives/6243<br /><br />It was for "explanatory" reporting rather than "investigative" reporting.
