I have a friend who is a reporter at the republic and he called me and asked how another reporter he knws and trusts could hook up with someone from the east valley or awatoookey. I led him to AZgeocaching.com.
The guy I know is also a geocacher (handel withheld to protect his identity) and I don't think he would have helped anyone who is going to write a negative peice about geocaching.

No, I would never use sarcasm when speaking of the reporting done by some of the local papers. I don’t know this guy from another reporter, so I have no idea what angle he’d be approaching this from. There have been some VERY unfavorable articles published courtesy of the Republic (due to one-sided interviewing and selecting someone for interview that despises all things Geocaching), but my impression is that he wants to write something good about it. I look forward to reading the article when it publishes.
