Bored? Shoot a Dog.

Over at Poynter's Romenesko media site, Roger Moore from the Orlando Sentinel is responding to yesterday's City Paper expose on the hard-nosed style of Vince Morris, the mayor's new flack.

Labeling Morris' new role as "the ultimate expression of the Peter Principle," Moore suggests collecting everyone's favorite Morris anecdotes. His? "Worked with Vince at what must have been his first gig, as an infamous bureau reporter at the Winston Salem Journal in the early 90s. His hobbies included shooting BBs at his landlord's dog 'because I was bored.'"
