Just to tap a dead horse lightly on the skull: if Zitcer lives here, he is
under no more obligation to interview his neighbors than Ray is or I am,

As I read Zitcer's column, it wasn't presented as reportage but as opinion.
And it certainly read as though Zitcer was a resident of University City,
expressing his thoughts and feelings and reactions to a controversy in his
neighborhood. Columnists shouldn't lie, but their mission is not
