Willamette Week
Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter
Tom Hallman Jr. has been parking free courtesy of a felon he once
profiled. After he was caught by an alt-weekly, Hallman "acknowledged that accepting this offer was a serious ethical breach, given [
Andrew] Wiederhorn's controversial past, the fact he continues to be in the news and because Tom did a series on Wiederhorn eight years ago," says Oregonian editor
Sandra Mims Rowe. Hallman has been suspended without pay for two weeks and will get an ethics lesson.
