The dark mutterings of a former mild-mannered reporter for a large metropolitan daily newspaper, now living in obscurity in central Indiana.

Godspeed, Hugh Rutledge
I received an e-mail this evening from former co-worker Art Harris telling me that former Newsie Hugh Rutledge died this morning.
Hugh was a first-rate city government reporter and a pretty good pool player. He had a pilot's license and was the only guy in the newsroom who could juggle.
He also had a great sense of humor.
He was one of the people who made The Indianapolis News a great place to practice journalism.
