Mayor and Publisher in Rape-Inspired Fistfight
Gallup, New Mexico mayor Harry Mendoza saw Gallup newspaper publisher Bob Zollinger in a parking lot and what happened? Yes, they got in a fistfight. "Mendoza told police that Zollinger started poking him in the chest hitting his pacemaker."
"Police indicate the fight centered around a series of stories recently published in the Gallup Independent linking Mendoza to the gang rape of a 16-year old girl back in 1948." But old Mendoza had injuries to his hand and old Zollinger had injuries to his face so I guess we know who won this one. Journalism: Still exciting! [Via Romenesko]
