CTL+C, CTL+V + Byline = Another Clip for the Resume File

It’s Friday and you’re a reporter for America’s Best Community Daily. Page designers need 12 inches for the bottom of Saturday’s local front. It’s too hot to leave the air-conditioned office. It’s too late in the day to make any phone calls. What’s a reporter to do?

Easy. You click on the electronic in-basket, and voila! A decently written news release from the state’s commissioner of consumer services about how dry things are pops up on the screen.

Ctl+C Electronic in-basket: “Even if some parts of Florida are fortunate enough to get some rain this weekend, it won’t be enough to eliminate the danger,” Bronson said. “We are still in a deficit rainfall situation and there is a lot of dried out vegetation which acts as a fuel for fires. Also, the same storms that may bring rain will also bring strong winds as well which is real problem for firefighters.”
