Longabardi vs. the AP

The Baltimore Sun weighs into the case of Los Angeles freelance investigative reporter Eric Longabardi, who gave up on the TV news business and went to Associated Press hoping to break a story about Sept. 11 hijakchers having trained in Arizona. Writes David Folkenflik: "Argumentative and a touch unkempt, he seems the archetype of the utterly focused investigative journalist. By most accounts, he is just that - a late-night interview junkie and a phenom at ferreting out hard-to-find documents."
