Ashley and the rest of the Paxton Hillbilly Hit Squad managed to lop approximately 37 points off the newsroom's collective IQ during their first week of ownership. It's been alternately hilarious and infuriating watching those clowns abandon any sense of skepticism in the way they've approached this case, either in reporting it or (especially) editorializing on it.<BR/><BR/>12:05 also scores points in reference to the silly-@ss "Thing Are Looking Up In Durham!"-type columns penned by Ashley. That pap might have constituted "opinion" in Owensboro, Ky., Ashley's previous paper.

One in which they got screwed, as we knew.<BR/><BR/>"At the top of the felony scale, Durham guidelines provide no bond for those facing possible death penalties for first-degree murder. <BR/><BR/>The highest dollar figure on the chart is $200,000, suggested for first-degree rape and first-degree murder cases not involving potential capital punishment. <BR/><BR/>Second-degree homicide cases carry a recommended bond of $100,000 and a maximum penalty of roughly 40 years in prison.

With all that is happening and has happened in Durham this past year, Ashley is still either writing booster columns or small-town coverage that amounts to garden parties.<BR/>He had to tell everybody about his vacation in the most recent one.<BR/>I read them when I need a good laugh. It's pitiful that this is all Durham has.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
