National scrutiny: Not fun

by Matt | April 27th, 2008 |

The N.C. Primary campaigning is in full swing.

Everyone knows I’m a person with a reputation for going head-first into any adventure of mine. How ironic that my first journalism/media job puts me smack-dab in the middle of LGBT political coverage of the N.C. Primary… in a year where our wonderful state isn’t ignored as it is in almost every election year.

National scrutiny isn’t going to be fun and I have a sense I’ll be getting complaints from all sides of all issues over the next week and a half. In fact, I already have.

Stress? No, not at all! There’s no stress here.

  2. Take care, friend, and keep your sense of perspective - in 10 years, nobody’ll remember any of it anyway. *grins* You’ll do great - I’ve got faith in your abilities and your judgment, even when we disagree on the issues. Best wishes.
