Thanks to Linda and Jamie pointing us to the KOIN website, I found this
January 21st article (originally from the Portland Tribune, a KOIN
affiliate) which is a good example of more responsible and diligent
reporting, than most of what we've seen from The Oregonian lately:
http://koin.com/2016/01/21/could-refuge-protest-spread-across-state/
There's not a single quote from the Bundy gang, in the whole piece.
Instead the focus is on the perspectives of law enforcement officers
statewide, Burns residents, impacts to federal employees, and past
involvement by some of the occupiers in previous criminal actions.
It seems good to encourage this kind of journalism.

P.S. Also on the KOIN website today is a feature on the presidential
petition:
http://koin.com/2016/01/21/could-refuge-protest-spread-across-state/
I signed this when there were just 200-some signatures, so very pleased
to see it's now well over 21,000 signatures. If you haven't already
shared it with your social network, please consider doing so.
