CNN: Columnist resigns over sexual relationship


CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) -- Nationally syndicated Chicago Tribune columnist Bob Greene resigned after acknowledging he engaged in inappropriate sexual conduct with a teenage girl, the newspaper said Sunday.

The ironic thing is that (according to the story) Greene almost won a Pulitzer for writing about children's rights. I guess it's analogous to my writing about local music. I wrote about local music, so I felt like I should go to some local shows. He wrote about teenagers, so he too immersed himself in his subject matter. I'm just glad he didn't write about animal rights.
