The to-do du jour of blogging this week was the cancellation of political blogger Dan Froomkin's contract by the Washington Post. It was vaguely interesting to me at first, but became more interesting when I read Winston-Salem Journal editor Ken Otterbourg's blog post about having dinner with a young reporter named Dan Froomkin at Mr. BBQ in W-S. I wonder how many reporters who have gone on to (relative) journalistic stardom have gotten their start at the Camel City rag?
