Save Medford:INDICT MUCCINI-BURKE

 Some day Medford will THANK me the way that many seniors secretly do for publishing this important and informative website.   Plus, we knock the stuffing out of these stuffed shirts, and they deserve it, don't they Freddy Sr. Jr.!!!

FREDEERICK DELLO RUSSO SR (JR) RESPONDS:  "How about a little fire, Scarecrow?"

Editor responds: As long as you don't put a smoke bomb in my pocket; I already threw the bucket of water at your son and melted him...

 FREDERICK DELLO RUSSO SR: The thing is, I could have worked with a guy like you

 Editor: Medford would have been a different, and better, place, Fred.  Too bad your son fxxxked it up for us!   We probably could have been friends...

 Frederick: Yeah, but we're not, so I repeat, How About a Little FIRE, Scarecrow?

Editor: With all those stuffed shirts at city hall and Stephanie Burke using your campaign contributions, Freddy, to take a firetruck as her personal cab to decorate the Christmas trees?  I say go for it, you might just cost the witch the election.

She went undercover to expose an insane asylum's horrors. Now Nellie Bly is getting her due.


Diane Bernard, The Washington Post 






"Nearly all night long I listened to a woman cry about the cold and beg for God to let her die. Another one yelled, 'Murder!' at frequent intervals and 'Police!' at others until my flesh felt creepy," Bly wrote about her first night at the institution in her exposé for Joseph Pulitzer's New York World.
Bly's covert operation exposing abuses at the asylum at Blackwell's Island, now Roosevelt Island, pioneered a path for women in newspapers and launched what morphed into serious investigative journalism. The account by the 23-year-old "girl detective" shocked the public with its depiction of brutality and violence.
Now the journalism pioneer is getting her own monument - at the very site she wrote about.
