I was an intern for one of the city's daily papers. I spent about 9 hours staking out a story, gathering quotes and color. I phoned in my notes to one of the paper's columnists who reported everything -- in a pretty well-written story -- as if he was there. Not giving me credit was fine. But he should of clearly stated that he didn't do the reporting. Dowd should of done the same thing.
