the ucd/malcolm x park incident of may 11-12 wasn't
mentioned in the philly public record prior to tony's june
14 story, was it?

No. Not newsworthy enough, from our perspective.
thanks. that helps clarify what I was asking paul about:
now that we know the article you wrote was the first mention
you or your paper made about the ucd incident since it
happened a month ago (rather than an ongoing story you or
your paper were covering), paul's question becomes one about
the appropriateness of yourself, as a reporter, being
personally involved in the article you wrote. (for example,
was your involvement with uclist over this incident as a
reporter? as focp board member?) [do I have that right, paul?]
and the question becomes more interesting, when we consider
what you mean by 'newsworthy': in your article, was the news
of the ucd incident a pretext for your writing about special
service districts, or was writing about special service
districts a pretext for your presenting, as a publicist,
ucd's 2nd press release about the ucd incident? or--?
