Thanks, Paul - for your incredible dedication to accurate, candid reporting on the f.c. crisis. You, personally, changed the tone and tenor of the national scandal. Before you kicked the story into high gear, journos just parroted bank p.r. blather about ‘free homes for deadbeats’ to rabble-rouse opposition to even basic assistance.
You are a marvel and a treasure. Keep up the good work. Pls. stay on the story. We are still out here, underwater, underfunded and unemployed.
Don’t turn your back on us.
Congrats are well-deserved here!!
