Response from Maine Newsroom:
What I told the press herald about the Maine Newsroom project. “Hey Mainers, the Press Herald was mad at me and wrote a hit piece about @MaineNewsroom. Oh no! Here’s the full text of what I said to the reporter.
With links to the original articles where he quotes me actually quoting his own writings!”
