    The news is that there is no news to be covered. Its a dead end story in more ways than one.

    Tom Petty and boots,

    Thank you both so much for trying to put an end to this terrible thread and the lies that are being told about my special daddy. People do not want to hear about these lies and the many, many other lies that could possibly be spread on this thread. Your loyalty to my lovely daddy and to Journal Register Company shows just how important my daddy's love filled heart is to both of you.

    My special daddy told me to tell you both that your bonus checks are in the mail. Tom, when you come over tonight, as always, please remember to wear your Jordache jeans. Daddy asked me to pass on a special message just for you. I don't know what it means, but my lovely daddy said you would understand. He said: Lee my love, please tell my "friend" Tom Petty that Ramón will also be coming over tonight, so it won't just be one-on-one.

    Are you men playing basketball or a board game? Nevermind, Tom. As I stated, Daddy said you would understand what his message meant.

    Boots, my lovely daddy's Canadian born skin was glowing when he heard that you joined the caring and compassionate members of his side. He is so, so anxious to get to know you. He asked me to tell you that he has a special "package" waiting for you when you meet him for the first time this weekend.

    Please, everyone, join me in sending a blast of love to caring, kind human beings like Tom Petty and boots and the other many, many beautiful people who support my special daddy and understand the true love he feels for all of God's creatures. Please, end the lies on this thread by agreeing to never post on this thread again. If no one posts on this thread, it will soon be a distant memory.

    Hey, I heard that some Trentonian reporters are actually introducing themselves as being from "Journal Register Company" rather than saying they are from "The Trentonian" when covering events ... perhaps this makes them seem like they are representing a legitimate, upstanding place of employment! :eek:

    This is getting old. It's great if people want to bash JRC, but the moronic Lee and Bob impersonating detracts from the thread's credibility. Hit them hard and straight. In the modern world, would anyone give a shit if Bob is, indeed, cavorting with a Ramon? Amid all of the legitimate gripes, we need to stoop to this crap?
     
  7. If The Trentonian's reporters are honestlly alluding to Journal Register Company instead of The Trentonian while covering events it must be an order from management. No employee who ever worked for The Trentonian ever viewed JRC as a whole any more upstanding than The Trentonian itself. Is there something improper with JRC asking employees to do this? I do not understand how this is a reason to dislike JRC.
    -------------
    I have decided to stop adding to my daily list. My intention with this thread was to warn journalists about the risks of agreeing to work for a JRC newspaper. It is my hope that this helped spread the message. I must agree with a few other thread contributors that this thread has run its course for now. If I learn new and relevant information I will post it or if any of you have new personal messages that are relevant I will post them too.

    Frank, the Ramon character in my daily translations was just to add some humor to a gloomy topic. I did not intend to offend anyone.

    If the subjects know anything at all about journalism, having reporters introduce themselves as being from the "Journal Register Company" does nothing to improve their credibility.

    Might as well introduce themselves as representing the Manson Family.
