| Well my friend was asked to do a report on Muckrakers. He wondered if barry would be considered one. |

LOL LOL i had tp look it up. the term MUCKRAKER is most associated with a group of american investigative reporters, novelist and critics from the late 1800's to early 1900's, who investagated and exposed societal issues such as conditions in prisons, factorys,sweatshops, mines, child labor and unsanitary conditions in food prossing plants. MUCKRAKERS shed light on issues by writing books and articles for popular magazines and newspapers. that sumes it up LOL.
i'll let Barry say if he is or not.
peace, von |
