A reporter's reporter

Eric Townsend is leaving us to join the public relations staff at Elon University. We hired Eric three years ago as a night cops reporter. He made his mark in the day cops jobs with stories such as the investigations into the police department and Friendship Homes. Personally, my favorite was the burrito eating contest.

He just recently moved to City Hall, where he covered his first council meeting Monday. Hmmm, council Monday -- resigns Friday. Tough crowd.

Hate to lose him. As City Editor Teresa Prout said, "He's a reporter's reporter."

See, you missed linking to the video, which is the best part:

I think this needs to be e-mailed to the newsroom again before he leaves, just to embarrass him some more.
