Blog by Verina Palmer Martin
Verina Palmer Martin is a Missoula native who fled town in 1986 in search of truth and eternal sunshine, which led to a longtime newspaper career in Arizona.

She blames the UM School of Journalism for her addiction to news ink and ridiculously high journalistic ethics.
