[Imc-cleveland] Imc-cleveland Digest, Vol 37, Issue 11

[ABIGAIL FISHEL]

I would also like to add one more thing for you to consider:  Think if the 
scenario was such that there was a new guy that moved to Cleveland from 
pittsburg who was on the imc editorial collective there, came here was into 
going to different events, covering stories, doing interviews, and hopped on 
the radio show with patrick and had been consistently doing things for the 
imc for five months or so...tell me if there would be any question or 
hesitation about letting him on.
