Responding to Monica Bielanko
I wrote the following column;

Here's the response:

Here's my response:
I don't pretend that my column is objective journalism. I have made full disclosure all of my conflicts in a previous column. It's a column. It's my opinion. Sure it's biased. That what columnists do -- write their opinion. What I don't do is write my opinion and then go out and cover a news story on that subject. To me that's a conflict of interest. At least I've disclosed my conflicts. I read some other columnists around town and wish they would disclose their conflicts of interest. I also got a response from Ms. Bielanko and her station. I dare you to find the last time Warchol did that before he skewered someone on the Salt Lake Crawler blog (hosted and paid for by the Salt Lake Tribune).
