JA newspaper editors - JonTom - 11-27-2013

Does the Gleaner (or Observer for that matter) newspaper have any editors? Or at least proofreaders?

Today was just another example of seemingly daily articles that mention a person (often just a partial name) with no explanation at all of who that person is. It is made odder b/c other persons will have explanations of their profession, resident city, or, in the case of musical artists, their given name.

Happens all the time when I read online. I've bought printed newspaper (both G. and O.) a few times when in JA but have seen similar, so I don't think it is online re-arrangement that causes this.

Today's example:

"He said he told Kartel that he was at work, and that it was Brown and Lizard who had gone for the guns,...."

Me: 'Brown'? Who is 'Brown'??
Go back to the top and slowly re-read article. Nope this is 1st mention of 'Brown'.

Who is he? Oh well, just go with "he's the guy that went w/ Lizard to get the guns".
