(1) If you ask Nancy Clark-Stockdale, this guy is full of shit.  Don't believe the blogs.  He doesn't have any of the all-important access needed to report a story, and his journalistic standards are lacking.  This story cannot be true, and you should be ashamed of yourself for believing anything you read on something other than the Des Moines Register.

(2) That guy stole from us, too.  It's as if Pharty had his own blog.

(3) The fact that someone who clearly cannot format a picture, and treats his bold and italic buttons like a morphine drip, spends his time complaining about newspaper formatting should tell you all you need to know about Ronald Maly.  The fact that he's on the Iowa sportswriter wall of fame in the new pressbox at Kinnick should tell you all you need to know about sports reporting in Iowa.
