The Color of Ink Frank C McGee

Our story moves now past Waiting for Friday to today, and tomorrow. Are we being presumptuous? Possibly. The Color of Ink is a small book about Truth and Consequences. Ernie Hemmingway told the truth about fake news in Yellow Ink, his famous book about ethics in journalism. Why does Cameron Fraser tell Holly Hemmingway now about his real self in university? Fake news is nothing new (the hairy arm of Esau in the book of Genesis). But today it's a science. And global. Foreign actors use 'Perception Management" to set us against us, my party against yours, your tribe against mine. There's an algorithm for that. Harrington Black, Dean of The Carter School of Journalism, recently wrote 'Ruts 'R Us, ' an Op-Ed in The New York Times. He also wrote Hemmingway's Way, and says we now know how to put Ruts 'R Us' out of business. In The Color of Ink, Cam and Holly discover a secret plot by a venal company and organized crime to replace a group of rural health clinics with a giant hospital. How do they deal with it? Look twice. You might be amazed. Ernie and Sarah's story in Waiting for Friday continues here with their daughters and 'grandgirls, ' whose Sisters' Systems turned the tech world on its hard-of-hearing ear in 2022. There wasn't an algorithm for that.
