TS, different reporter, same issue with getting names wrong

Just today, twice you screwed up Dr. Jennifer Wilson's name. It is not Christina Wilson. There is a local attorney, Christina Allbright who had nothing to do with any of the cases you wrote about and screwed up Dr. Wilson's name.



How hard is it when their names appear in Zoom? Maybe before failed John Richmond who left LOCO and now is tanking TS brags about the quality of your reporting, he can work on hiring reporters that can get basic facts and names right.

It isn't just the names. Pointing out all your errors just in court reporting is a full time job. Maybe if you didn't try to copy and cover random hearings; maybe if your current reporters weren't so arrogant, they would benefit from help and sharing information like I did with others from various media outlets and Times Standard in the past.

Stick to screwing up your other coverage and use the time on courts to come up with more than a few paragraphs that don't inform your dwindling readership.

I wrote about low income funding from City of Eureka just as  I do other breaking news days and weeks ago before others. Besides regurgitating press releases and what others report, what do the multiple staffers at TS, LOCO, NCJ do most of the time? Others run press releases but also do original reporting. You dont even have to earn your paycheck like me. Your output doesn't match the resources you have. If certain advertisers have money to throw away, they can continue investing in sub standard media.
