Mari Winn's Joplin Independent website reports that KODE didn't tell the whole story in its May 15 report on a libel suit filed by Joplin city manager Mark Rohr against a Piqua, Ohio, businessman while Rohr was Piqua city manager.
On the Globe website, it says that Rohr lost the lawsuit. In fact, it was determined that the businessman had libeled Rohr, but the jury did not award any damages.
