...Hits the San Francisco Chronicle. Ow.
Tough issue there. Tough decision to make.
I understand the newspaper's concerns. The question, however, is where this stops. Can a gay journalist cover issues about gay people effectively? Can a black journalist cover issues about black people effectively? I think most people would say yes to both questions.
So where is the line drawn? When is a person too involved in an issue to cover it effectively?
May you be cursed to live in interesting times ...
