Sen. Murkowiski's $164 K Freebie
A few weeks ago I made some arch comments that suggested the Anchorage Daily News was proving lazy in its reporting on Alaska political corruption - and I suggested, rather flippantly and indirectly, that Lisa Murkowski's business dealings should be checked out.
Today Talking Points Memo reports another sweetheart deal - corrupt developer Bob Penny sells land about $164 K under market value to Sen. Murkowski, making a perfect trio of Alaska Congressional corruptibility.
The Anchorage Daily News is become unacceptably cowardly and failing Alaska at a critical moment.

It's only a very small saving grace, but a link to the TPM story was posted that same night on the ADN Newsreader blog.
But journalistic cowardice makes a much more exciting justification for canceling my subscription than does, "I can't justify dropping that much money on something with which I spend so little time."
