Special Investigative Reporter - Malcolm R Campbell - Bog

Bag om Special Investigative Reporter

In this satirical and somewhat insane lament about the fall of traditional journalism into an abyss of news without facts, Special Investigative Reporter Jock Stewart specializes in tracking down Junction City's inept and corrupt movers and shakers for his newspaper The Star-Gazer. Since Stewart is not a team player, he doesn't trust anyone, especially colleagues and news sources. Stewart, who became a reporter back in the days when real newsmen were supposed to smoke and drink themselves to death while fighting to get the scoop before their competition sobered up, isn't about to change. Stewart's girlfriend leaves him, the mayor's racehorse is stolen, people are having sex in all the wrong places (whatever that means), and townspeople have fallen into the habit of sneaking around and lying to reporters and cops. Sure, everyone lies to the cops, but reporters expect gospel truths or else. Stewart may get himself killed doing what he was taught to do in journalism school, but that's all in a day's work.
