'Weekly Reader' Editor Was Caught in FBI Sex Probe

http://www.mediainfo.com/eandp/search/article_display.jsp?schema=&vnu_content_id=1000978151

<snip>

Details have emerged since E&P first reported yesterday that an editor at Weekly Reader, the newspaper for school kids, was arrested by federal authorities after he allegedly tried to solicit sex from someone he thought was a teenage boy.

It turns out that the 14-year-old named “Chris” who he met in a Web chat room was actually an undercover FBI agent named David George.

Noel Neff, 46, of Norwalk, CT, a former sportswriter for Florida papers, was arrested Saturday outside a mall in Franklin, Mass., where authorities say he had hoped to meet "Chris."

<snip>

E&P first revealed Tuesday that Neff was listed as “editor” or “staff editor” at the Weekly Reader and had covered last year's Republican convention in New York and this year's Super Bowl for the publication. He has freelanced for newspapers such as the St. Petersburg Times in the past.

1. Weekly Reader--Same pub that conjured the bogus pre-election poll
Edited on Thu Jul-14-05 04:12 PM by TwoSparkles
This is the same publication that ran that bogus, rigged poll prior to the presidential election.

K-12 students voted for their choice of president and Bush won with 60 percent (there's no friggin way!). Bush won in every state, except Maryland.

This poll had a major public relations campaign behind it. A press release was disseminated and a big publicity campaign surrounded the results. What a farce.

Interesting that this pedophile--and editor of the "Weekly Reader"-- covered the Republican Convention in New York.

Is there anything that these bastards haven't rigged or stolen??

2. Take it from a teacher
Weekly Reader sucks. Scholastic News is MUCH better.
