Said Ian: "David Simon was a reporter for 18 years at Baltimore Sun who took a buy out in 1995 and went on to Hollywood to create The Wire. Here he addresses Congress about the demise of the once proud newspaper industry. It brought a lump to my throat."
Said the TSF reader: "I'm a regular reader of the Toronto Sun Family Blog. Really enjoy some of the newspapering issues you and your readers raise. Here's a link to something I found really interesting - just in case you haven't seen it yet. Fits with some of the discussion taking place on your blog . . . "
Enjoy
Just FYI. The Wire was created, completely, in and around Baltimore, Maryland.
