I enjoyed this article in the El Paso Times the other day. It was about the cut backs in the army and how they will affect Fort Bliss and thus El Paso.
The reporter explained that the net loss to Fort Bliss will be 750 soldiers instead of the 3,500 previously reported by others.
What I enjoyed most about the article is that the reporter figured out what people would want to know about the cut backs, researched to get answers and then wrote about them.
Many articles I read in the Times leave me with more questions than I had before I read the article. This article was different in that it anticipated my questions and then answered them. I saw no repetition or political bias as I often do in the Times. The numbers made sense and even added up correctly.
I hope to see more reporting like this.
