Cincinnati Post Memo: No Booze
A NOTE to Cincinnati Post staff from editor Mike Philipps, on the occasion of the newspaper’s closing:
Please do not bring any alcoholic beverages into the newsroom. Let’s go out like the professionals we have been these last, difficult weeks.
Jack Shafer resplies:
1) Since when is it considered unprofessional for a journalist to take a drink? and 2) If Post staffers, who were all scheduled for dismissal, did bring flasks to work, what was Philipps going to do if he caught them? Fire them?
