St Petersburg is fortunate to have the Poynter Institute, a unique place that attracts journalists from all over the world for its seminars and conferences. Its goal is to serve journalists and media leaders, as well as future journalists - to explore ethics and excellence. What should be discussed? How? What about photographs? What's the role of videos in news reporting. Let's talk about the McClellan story, or race relations, or slanting stories. Courses, seminars, online studies. Poynter is a unique institution, right across from the Salvador Dali Museum, and just a few blocks from the heart of downtown St. Petersburg. It's yet one more thing that makes St. Petersburg such an attractive place to live, with a tremendous variety of things to do.

Tom - all of us are evidence of that, aren't we?
Tom makes very good point. There must be more to why McClellan did this. The motivation to do and take all the extra press that comes with the controversy is maybe a bit like selling your soul, And like selling your soul, the price to be paid is yet determined. I wonder who he will be paying that price to? I suppose someone will be figure out before long.
William - I always told my children when they were growing up that they could do whatever they wanted, but that everything has a price. And the things you don't know the price for, generally turn out to be the most expensive of all.
