Jack McElroy has been treading some pretty deep water since this time last week. He directed his employee Tom Chester to submit a Open Records Request using Lee Tramel’s personal email contact list minus 15 or so of Jack’s favorite people. McElroy is smack dab in the middle of his story, making news and not reporting it.

Pam Strickland has now authored a piece in today’s newspaper about how she was inspired by the reporting of fellow News Sentinel reporter Mike Donila and frustrated at the talk but the lack of walk by UT Professor and one time failed Congressional Candidate Mark Harmon in submitting a sworn complaint on Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett. Allegations made by his estranged and unemployed wife.

What part of not being the story does Jack & Pam not understand?
