Patrick Lalley pooh-poohed the idea of putting an Argus Leader bureau in Pierre. Bob Mercer stood by and watched it happen. Teevee stations have refused to cover it. Now Pierre's rape culture and culture of corruption are leaking out.
A Google search found exactly zero articles where Bob Mercer covered clergy crimes or the Church's lobbying power in Pierre and the legislature. In fact, in one story he praised a lawmaker who covered up clergy crimes and sponsored legislation for earth haters who were his benefactors. Bob can't come right out and say the town is awash in corruption because he's been told he and his family are in danger if he does. If he implicates a player he knows he will lose his access.
Mercer is in his late fifties and like Brock Greenfield he's immune from the facts and suffering from multiple health issues that have not only curtailed his coverage of the news but have apparently clouded his judgement.
Maybe it's time he admits he's part of the vast wrong-wing conspiracy, leaves the news business, prays the Rosary and simply forgets the truth about his church.
