Do your homework
Dear Mr. Penner, I give you a C- for your latest journalistic effort in the Los Gatan. You should validate your information before releasing your stories for publication.
Your article titled “ACLU threatens legal action against town” is devoid of factual information about the Town of Los Gatos’ actual policies and procedures. Your story omits easily sourced facts perhaps because you received your information from only one garbage can.
I am frequently impressed by the competency of student writers at Los Gatos High School on behalf of their publication, “The El Gato News.” Mr. Penner, you can achieve more credibility by following their example and “doing your homework” before publishing future writings. Please, no more lazy journalism.
Steven Leonardis,
