A Challenge or A Dare?


The Maven seems to have hit a nerve. 

Any email that begins with the words "Hey, A$$hole" always gets the Maven's attention. The "writer" continues: "If you think you can write a better story, go ahead, f*head.". Well, nice to see that your high-priced college education is serving you so well.

OK,  challenge accepted. The Maven has chosen a random WOWO News story from today. 

First is the WOWO version, the second is the Maven's version.

Please note that the Maven's story is short and concise and does not contain superfluous information. The Maven also does not include confusing and incorrect statements such as "....is being charged for robbery..." That phrase is not only awkward, it makes the writer appear ignorant. People are charged "with" a crime, not charged "for" a crime. 

The real crime here, is that a once-respected news operation has become a laughable parody of its former self.
