I'm not trying to prove anything to anyone in the industry (save those with IQs above 130).
I've blended fictional stories with factual stories since the beginning and six years later, I'm not likely to change.
Yeah, you will have to work when you read my stuff. It ain't porn journalism for dummies and I don't plan to dumb down my approach, using different colors to indicate satire, humor, fact, opinion, and the like. Sorry if that makes it out of reach for many members of this board.

Well, the iq over 130 includes most members of this board....

So according to your post, you ARE trying to prove something to us....
When I said "most places" in my previous post, I meant "most serious journalistic places that want to be taken seriously by their audience".
The fact that you mix fiction and nonfiction within your list of stories indicates that you take your role as journalist and your responsibility to present facts and the truth rather less seriously than you probably should.
If you want to be taken seriously by ANYONE, then you must act responsibly.
