To all our friends in the great white north, I am on a project in Toronto for the next few weeks and I am trying to adjust to all the slightly different spellings up here (centre, cheque, etc.) even though my Canadian clients are too polite to tell me I sound like an American idiot. I need to...

Post-Gazette gets sued by a drug company today. It's a pretty boilerplate civil suit story and ends with a comment from the EIC/Publisher: In response to the announcement, Post-Gazette Publisher and Editor-In-Chief John Robinson Block said, "We have not seen the complaint, so we cannot comment...

I'll be up here for the next several weeks on a business trip. I was hoping to watch every Penguins game on the assumption that the NHL in Canada is like the NFL in the U.S. -- i.e. any decent sports bar buys the package that shows every game every night. So I walked into a sports bar that...

Is it possible to watch CP24 for more than five minutes without getting a splitting headache? You've got weather, sports, headlines, calendar, traffic cam, financial news, time, date, temp, and then the actual show/ads up in the top left corner. It makes Fox News look bland.

I apologize if another thread is covering this but it seemed like it should be separate from the general Olympic thread. In a thread below, there is a discussion of how nice it is to see Sally Jenkins take it to the Chinese a bit. NBC, however, would never say a bad word about China. The...

I thought this was a pretty interesting story with a unique structure - switching between first and third person in what amounted to a straight news story. But after I clicked the link to read it, i couldn't find the thread again. It seems to have disapeared even though it was posted today. So I...

I am planning my wedding with my fiancee and I have been assigned picking the musical selections for different points throughout the wedding. She says I can do whatever I want, as long as it is within reason. So I think we should enter the reception hall during the bride and groom announcement...

I am a former sports reporter who is getting back into deadline writing as a stringer after more than a year writing online columns. Basketball was never my strongest sport. This is a piece I freelanced last night. Any feedback on improving my basketball writing would be much appreciated. NEW...
