To Journalism 101. What about the all the personal attacks against Wendy and Arthur? I guess those are ok and shouldn't be removed. It's only when someone disagrees with those who write against the NP that someone gets upset and wants to stiffle the free expression that this blog provides. The hipocracy of the situation is laughable.

And, none of that changes the fact that Peter is the person most responsible for Blue Edge and he failed to do his job. He was demoted and that's why he left. Now he wants to blame everyone but himself. He was a joke in the NP building. Everyone thought of him as merely a fool.

I know for a fact that Peter has always been the problem with Blue Edge. It is well known throughout the NP building that Peter, or "Purple Haze" as he was also known by, was thought of as a joke of an employee by nearly everyone at the NP. In fact, dealing with Peter was a nightmare. He was regularly disiplined for breaking company policies and if not for one person in particular sticking up for him, he would have been fired for his many mistakes long ago.

He claims there were no ads but if you look in any edition of the mag, you will find them. And, what Peter doesn't want tell you all is that HE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SALES OF ADS IN BLUE EDGE.

It was a job he failed at and that led to his position and pay being cut 2 weeks ago. Now Peter is crying about how everyone was the problem with the mag. Well Peter, if you want to see the problem with Blue Edge, look in the mirror. Stop blaming others for you lack of ability and smarts. We're glad to you see go. Now maybe they can make the kids of improvements to the mag that you resisted for so long.
