Regarding the Gannon/Gosch piece by Erin Crawford in the Des Moines Register earlier this week. As a coworker, I am VERY familiar with Ms. Crawford's work, and can tell you that the article that appeared recently under her name was not her usual fare. It seems the editors at the Register heavily edited her copy, accounting for at least half of the finished article. The style is simply not Crawford's, but fits with the copy seen elsewhere in the paper daily. Crawford is a very egotistical young writer with a serious chip on her shoulder who is not above telling her sources they are mistaken. At the same time, she thinks so highly of herself that she would never recognize that she was being used as a tool by her higher ups to push an agenda that they've been pushing for many years now.
She was neither qualified to tackle this story nor capable. Her usual topics are writing about Survivor (the television show), makeup, fashion and other fluff. Her most recent article prior to the Gannon piece was a riveting story about $150 shoes. Who better to take on such a serious topic as this...
On another note, the alternative weekly paper in Des Moines, Pointblank, just printed a cover story on the subject that was much better. It's at www.pointblank-dm.com.
