Just saw where Keith Jenkins has announced his departure from the Enquirer. I’m guessing that will leave the UC beat with Scott Springer for a while if not forever.

Even Mark Twain thought that the Enquirer was a joke. Before you take shots, I think that this is a joke. Mark Twain dissed the Cincinnati Enquirer
Mark Twain probably didn’t actually say that thing about Cincinnati being 20 years behind the times, but he did have beef with a certain local newspaper. In his essay “An Entertaining Article,” Twain wrote, “I think the Cincinnati Enquirer must be edited by children.” It all stems from a parody review Twain did about his own comedic travelogue, “Innocents Abroad,” in a literary magazine he edited, after a London paper did a tongue-in-cheek review of the same travelogue. Twain didn’t write his review under his own name, instead posing as an English critic, but later admitted to that, which in turn prompted a columnist from the Enquirer to accuse Twain of lying. So basically, you and that one friend have an inside joke that your other friend takes seriously and freaks out over. For more context, Cincinnati historian Greg Hand details the full feud on his blog, Cincinnati Curiosities.
