How KPNX got O'Connor story: 'Dumb luck'

That's what Veronica Sanchez (left) of Gannett's KPNX-TV in Phoenix tells the Poynter Institute's Al Tompkins in this Q&A today. Sanchez is the reporter who broke the terrific story about former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor's ailing husband, and his unusual new romance. I wrote this week about KPNX's broadcast -- and the odd misstep by its sister company, The Arizona Republic. [Photo: KPNX]
