Congrats on Being Late, Fox 5

As I was walking out of Murky yesterday, I caught a Fox 5 reporter and her cameraman going in. Damn if I wish I couldn’t have stuck around. According to the baristas I talked with this morning, the reporter hadn’t done her research, and was being a general nuisance. They finally asked her to leave.
Fox 5, the real story was at Murky 9 days ago, not today. Showing up without having done your research, and being jerks to the staff at Murky…well, I suppose it’s par for the course for a station that follows the “If it bleeds, it leads” story model.
I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
What was the story?
They were “following up” on the Coffee Kerfuffle that happened the weekend of the 13th.
