OMG Examiner Loves Matt Smith!

smith2.jpgThe SF Politics Examiner, Arthur Bruzzone, wrote Matt quite a mash note yesterday:

"He is San Francisco’s most consistent and thorough investigative reporter. He can knock out 2,000-4,000 word fluid exposes week after week."

Also:

"Externally unemotional and detached, from the stories I've read, he has a healthy skepticism and distrust for many local institutions. That explains his large following – a highly informed approach with surprising conclusions."

Blushing! Read the whole thing here. --Andy Wright

Hooray for Matt! I admire his investigative and even-handed reporting. He certainly deserves a better venue than one of the two Never-let-the-truth-get-in-the-way-of-a-good-rant style weekly papers.
My bug, though, is his rant about the SFBG court victory over the SFW. It was a fair trial, like it or not. SFW lost. Why soil your reputation by whining about it, and why would you want to defend this paper, anyway?
This is a town with crappy newspapers, weeklies included. A few columnists like Matt, Mark Morford, and Roberto Friedman rise above the mire.
C'mon, Matt. There's plenty of story fodder out there. Give us the good stuff.
