Drescher Calls Out Easley
Since Claude Sitton retired from The News & Observer,
Drescher, who recently became executive editor at The N&O, publicly called out Governor Easley twice this weekend.
In his column and on the air, Drescher challenged Easley to answer questions about the N&O’s devastating series on the state’s failed mental health reforms.
Drescher wrote, “Simply put, Easley needs to lead.” On WRAL’s “Headline Saturday,” which he co-hosts, Drescher challenged the Governor to appear on the show and answer questions.
It was an unusually personal challenge – the kind of thing Sitton frequently did.
The N&O, like many newspapers, may face an uncertain financial future. But Drescher appears determined to keep the paper a political power.
