Does FR have an award for investigative journalism?
I nominate you for all of your fabulous info on this thread.
WBAL-TV led with this story last night at 11:00. They had Ryan O'Doherty on air dancing away from answering the big question.
Funny to watch a "spokesman" silenced by a reporter.
O'Doherty: "I've answered all the questions from your news organization. I appreciate the opportunity and that's all I have to say."
The I-Team caught up with O'Doherty outside the Baltimore Metropolitan Council, where's he's held a newly created job for the past nine months. The agency is publicly funded, with close ties to the mayor and county executives.
O'Doherty is a friend of Steve Kearney, one of the mayor's top aides. Sources said Kearney first tried to get O'Doherty hired in City Hall. Kearney told 11News he couldn't remember if he provided any help.
Collins reported in response to Free Republic's disclosure, Josh White, the executive director of the state Democratic Party, said how could anyone take the word of a right-wing Website that wants nothing more than to help the governor.
