http://pulse.ncpolicywatch.org/2007/04/14/short-shrift/ The Progressive Pulse is a blog about the issues, debates, and people that affect North Carolina public policy. As with the organization that sponsors it, NC Policy Watch, its ultimate objective is to improve the quality of life in the state, in this case by promoting the development of an informed, energetic and progressive online community. The Progressive Pulse welcomes the contributions of interested people of all points of view provided they are of a reasonable length, have some relevance to issues of North Carolina public policy and abide by the common rules of online etiquette (i.e., please avoid inappropriate language and show a measure of respect for others --even the John Locke Foundation). To post a comment, simply click the comment line then provide your name and email. Your email address will not be collected or shared. If you would like to be contributing writer, please send your post to info@ncpolicywatch.com with 'blog' in the subject line. If the post meets with our criteria (has a progressive perspective and is relative to our state), we will publish it.

This was probably the best way to get information out. Besides, he gave the local press, including Neff and others, plenty of opportunity to ask about his report during the press conference - - and they didn't ask. Even if he gave more interviews to local reportere they would not have asked the same questions Stahl asked. As to the report, they take time to do, why hold up exonerating three innocent people so the press can ask about a report?
