Produktbeschreibung

People over Politics?

The job of a newspaper is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable Finley Peter Dunne.

It feels like Portland staggers from crisis to crisis, and the Eyewitness News staggers along with the city trying to cover the challenges the city faces, while dealing with their own personal crises too. It's not easy just ask Blair Williams. She's been hiding her brains behind a flippy, cheerleader persona. But now, EWN needs her to step up and become the cutthroat reporter she really is. But deep inside, Blair knows that nobody likes a smart girl.

Will being the smart woman be any different? She's about to find out.

This is the sixth omnibus in Newsroom PDX, a pollical suspense series about a college newsroom in downtown Portland during some of the most tumultuous times the city has ever faced.

Foul language. Some sex. Lots of politics. Rather like the city itself.

This omnibus includes Smart Girl, Hero, and A Story Well Told.

Autorenporträt

L.J. Breedlove is a former journalist writing mysteries and thrillers about what she knows: complicated people, small towns, big cities, cops, reporters, politicians, assorted bad guys.

"I write about religion and politics. About race and gender. I believe in the journalism axiom: Comfort the afflicted, and afflict the comfortable. To which the labor organizer Mother Jones was supposed to have added: And in general raise hell. That works for me."

L.J. grew up on a cattle ranch and then went to college to be an oceanographer. She decided getting seasick was not a good trait for an oceanographer to have, and discovered journalism instead a field that liked people who asked questions!

As a reporter and editor, she worked in Alaska, Oregon, Idaho, Texas, Washington, D. C. Then she got homesick for the Pacific Northwest and came home to work with college newspapers and teach journalism.

She is an over-educated, bleeding heart liberal with a penchant for heroes such as Jack Reacher. She isn't particularly bothered by the inconsistency.
