A couple of Bend residents were arrested on charges of growing 85 marijuana plants in their basement. For obvious reasons, you won’t find a copy of this story on The Bulletin’s site (at least I couldn’t). Why? Because one of the folks busted was a Bulletin employee (not sure what the person does there, but I’m just quoting the story).
It was in their print edition (page C1), amazingly enough. I couldn’t find a story online at other local media (Bend.com’s search function doesn’t work, so while it might be there, it’s impossible to find anything there anymore). But if you have a copy of the paper, it’s in there.
What annoys me further, actually (as pot busts aren’t that big of a deal, though this was pretty big), is that the story cites a Deschutes County Sheriff News Release, but I can’t say that I can find the release anywhere in their news section. So while I don’t expect to find that story on the Bulletin’s site for obvious reasons, I would expect to find it on the County’s site.

She happens to be the news room assistant, or something like that. She may be the Editor-in-Chief’s administrative assistant, too, I’m not sure.
Actually it was in there and they mention she was a bulletin employee which is interesting but totally irrelevant to the story, they didn’t say what the other person did for a living.
Yes, Mom…read what I posted in the entry. I know they mentioned that she was a Bulletin employee. They probably only mentioned it because somebody would’ve found out eventually and made a real ass out of the Bulletin (newspapers typically mention when stories are about one of their own).
BTW, I knew you knew about this site, but thanks for commenting!
Oh no! Jake, what if she (Mom) sees the link under “For The Self-Daters Out There” !?!?!
Geesus!
I hope her lurking won’t change the content. 🙂
HAHA….no worries, Val. My mom’s pretty casual, so don’t expect things to change too much.
