  • Please clarify!

    I really hope you aren’t inferring that had the football player used the “N” word that the beating would have been justified. That’s how the reporting sounds.

  • Petty, mean spirited and unprofessional

    While FITS used to concentrate on SC politics and stories, the latest podcast was spent trashing former employees and competitors—and getting their guest from the WSJ to do the same. With all the important contacts Mr. Folks has, it’s hard to understand why this kind of thing passes for what they advertise as fair and unbiased reporting.
