Dear Mr. Porter,

I realize you think of yourself as a pretty sharp reporter but one must ask how you conclude that Ms. Stone was A) eavsdroping and B) that she didn't get the facts right. I would think a sharp investigative reporter such as yourself would make every effort to dig really deep for the truth before writing such a piece without all the facts. I notice you didn't lambaste the tollbooth operator who claims that the front car blew thru without paying, yet her story is also in conflict with the three Arab gentlemen. Also, I notice that you did not lambaste the bomb sniffing dog either. Even though that dog did get a scent of some chemical that these three Arab men have explained away, obviously to your satisfaction, with it being related to their profession as doctors. Since you have chosen not to skewer either the tollbooth person nor the bomb sniffing dog I must conclude that you either completely ignored this when coming to your conclusion regarding Ms. Stone or you forgot to analyze these two events in with Ms. Stone's allegations. Either way it shows shabby investigative reporting on your behalf. This leads to only one course of action for you Mr. Porter, you must immediately retract your poisonous pennings against Ms. Stone and offer her your deepest apologies and learn that calling yourself an investigative reporter does not make you one.

Yours truly,

Robert DeLong
