Joe Murphy, a visitor of this blog and formerly of the Winston-Salem Journal, posts some advice for newspaper transparency. No. 2:

A word of warning: Depending on the community's ideas about the paper, you could be putting your boss in a dunk tank. If they mind getting wet now and then, they're not going to be thrilled about it. But I'm pretty sure that's part of the job description, isn't it?
And I can swim.
