POPULAR TOPICS


Spokesman-Review
Spokesman-Review editor Steven A. Smith says he doesn't want to pick a fight with "Frontline" over its report on Jim West, the late Spokane mayor. "I think their mistakes of commission (fact errors) and mistakes of omission were not malicious, in general, but driven by the demands of their narrative and their medium," he writes. "But the overall effect, I think, was to seriously dilute the depth, breadth and detail of our reporting and to place far more importance than facts warranted on West’s gayness as the cause of his fall."
