I was so delighted to hear your coverage of "It's Not in the P-I." However, as a former intern there, I must say I was treated very well -- nothing like what was portrayed in the segment you played!

Seattle news is not the same.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the part of the play where they're 'narrating the subtext' directly lifted from the "30 Acts in 60 Minutes" episode of "This American Life?"

It's here, and it's about 25 minutes in: http://www.thisamericanlife.org/Radio_Episode.aspx?sched=1274

I know, I know, I'm cross-referencing public radio with public radio. It's what I do.

I loved your interview with Tom Paulson. As an alumnus of the P-I, I can concur that it was a quirky and imperfect vehicle for the common good, but it was a wonderful source of information on the Puget Sound region. The play does a fine job of satirizing journalists and their subjects.
I miss the P-I. And don't tell me the online version is a proper substitute.
