Kathy, I need to talk with you. The Junkin machine came after me after my appearance on 60 Minutes with Ed Bradley regarding the murder of three policemen in Fayette.

If the Hoover High scandal is the tip of the iceberg, I may have what is below the water line.

Hoover schools have a long history of requiring their principals to make sure thier teachers do not post low grades. The principals have chosen to not retain their teachers if they do not co-operate.

Hunter Ford also writes for The Western Star, the paper that reports untruths in their opinion columns, and almost no news. He will probably keep his job there, since they do not care about the truth. Hunter has made unsubstantiated ….well I better stop there. But bye Hunter, hope you lose your other job.

Oooh. Wow. That’s pretty jaw-dropping. (And that’s twice today for me!)

You do mean, this is a call-in show? And so it was like, “…and here’s our next caller…yes sir, you’re on the air,” and Junkin says, “Hello Paul, I’m the general manager of the Hoover Gazette. Hunter Ford, you are terminated effective immediately”? This is like something out of a movie. All against a background of high-school football.
