how long will this slc sports writer keep his job?

the article has nice quotes by karl & stockton about charles... but the highlight for non salt lakers will be the line:

Barkley was victimized by Malone and Stockton in the last seconds of a tied Game 6 of the 1997 Western Conference finals. Stockton stepped behind a screen by Malone that was probably not legal. Stockton fired over a late-arriving Barkley and made the most famous three-pointer in franchise history.

it's moot now, but i just thought that a reporter should be commended when he challenges the norm to play "hush hush" when it comes to the local body politic, or sports franchise in a one sports town...
