Sometimes I know it sounds like I never find anything good about the Flint Journal. Not true, but I know that's the perception for some. On today's Journal website there is a moving story about a survivor from the genocide in Sierra Leone a number of years ago.
The reporter, a skilled young writer, has done wonderful work covering our military and now this tale of horror and survival.
It should also be noted that the reporter also had to endure a couple years of listening to crusty old veteran reporters spewing their cynicism in and around here desk. She did it with good humor.
This is the kind of work and project that newspapers are best at. And to repeat myself, folks are going to miss this when newspapers are gone.
The reporter blogged a little about her story as well.
