LA Times Reports All the News from Hooksett, NH, The Town Where Time Stands Still

Erica Hayasaki, whose VA Tech story was an abberation, has reverted to her usual clueless ways. In a Page One story, she breathlessly tells the LA Times readership about four women in Hooksett, New Hampshire who were fired for gossiping–in April.
Wire services carried the story–in April.
Hayasaki asserts that the story “has since spread across the nation.” (Idle thought: if the story is so well known, then why write about it now?)
She doesn’t mention that the women appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America –in May.
Two of them lost their appeal–in May.
The Hooksett town council issued a public statement–in June.
A new lawyer, representing all four, announced a lawsuit–in June.
Of course, the NY Times ran Dan Barry’s equally news-free piece on July 22. What interesting timing.
