The Bullying Blowback

When Karla steps into the office of Student Affairs VP Charles Brown this afternoon, I'll be at home. And I'll be worried – for Brown.

If you need proof of Karla's titanium-plated backbone, read her blog post today – the one where she calls student media director Marti Harvey "unethical" and backs that up with reporting.

Karla even interviewed Andy Schotz, chair of SPJ’s ethics committee...

To me, it’s really important that a journalism adviser be telling the truth, and that truth is a basic fundamental of journalism. If you don’t have that, you really don’t have anything else.

And then, for good measure, Karla took a photo of the SPJ Code of Ethics on Marti's door.

Poor Charlie Brown...

TOMORROW: I might've been right the first time.
