Forum

Jilda and I are attending the Timothy Sumner Robinson Forum tonight at Samford University. Last year we were invited to hear the guest speaker. This year we were invited to dine with Tim's family and the guest speaker, Eugene Robinson (no relation to Tim). Robinson is a nationally syndicated columnist for the Washington Post.
Last year's event was incredible. Post Editor Leonard Downie Jr. spoke on how technology has impacted news reporting and politic. He said that now, more than any time in the past, writers must make sure they check their facts because a blogger somewhere will. He said it is quite embarrassing to find out that a story is flawed after it is published.
So, tonight's entry is brief. Have a great Thursday.
