Message: [QUOTE="hungrychuck, post: 1197063, member: 389"] Not defending this practice -- it makes me a little uncomfortable also. But I think what THEY would say is that it's the "new" journalism. Interactive. The same way you get to have an exchange with writers about routine stories they have just written, which happens pretty consistently now. They are not necessarily asking only for incriminating information, although I realize that is the strong implication here. But if, for example, you knew Cornish wasn't charged criminally because he didn't actually embezzle the money, you'd be entitled to come forward with that, right? I hope you take the opportunity to ask them how they defend it. Let us know how they respond. [/QUOTE]
