MT: Cheers & Jeers
At the Lewiston Tribune, new Opinion Editor Marty Trillhaase has launched a Friday feature called "Cheers & Jeers." In it, Trillhaase writes short snippets re: individuals or organizations who deserve a shout out for good work the previous week or a kick in the pants for poor performance. Fox News analyst Lt. Col. Ralph Peters, for example, gets a Jeer for speculating that Pfc. Bowe Bergdahl might be a deserter, giving the Taliban more fuel to torture the Hailey, Idaho, soldier with. The Moscow City Council won a Cheer for unanimously voting to ban cigarette smoking in town taverns and private clubs. You can read Marty's column here.
