Lessons for the region from a newspaper legend
John S. Knight once explained: ''I dislike Washington. I don't like anything that reeks of phonies and insincerity, shenanigans and double-dealing and all that sort of thing.''
Portrait of an agency in hard times
Children Services examines its mission
On Wednesday evening, Summit County Children Services and Local 4546 of the Communications Workers of America issued a ''joint media release.''

When lawyers regulate doctors
Is there a better way to handle medical malpractice?
Where do you turn if you or a family member is severely harmed by a doctor's negligence — and you don't want to hire a lawyer?

Correction, and a little context
Of late, news organizations have been marking the first anniversary of the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the subsequent financial wreckage. Count among the events of that assumption-shattering time the country's conversation moving from billions to trillions. Millions? Small change, the nickels and pennies of federal budgeting.
