My post earlier today got it wrong.Turns out that Baltimore’sCity Paperdidn’t delete four of the five bullet points in my letter to the editor in this week’s issue; it deleted all five bullet points.

Here they are, one by one, with complete links to coverage here of the topics regarding the North Baltimore Aquatic Club that this “alternative” newspaper will not touch.

 

I.* WBAL Radio last year disappeared its own series on sex abuse in swimming by my colleague Tim Joyce, after Joyce started zeroing in on allegations against NBAC founder Murray Stephens. Joyce’s original report (which didn’t name Stephens, though Concussion Inc. soon would) led to Stephens’ departure as the face of the club. But not his departure – he continues, as owner of the Meadowbrook Aquatic Center, to collect scores of thousands of dollars a month in NBAC pool rental fees.
