Paschal adieu The end of an era is near. The Daily News editorial board was shocked and dismayed to discover Billy Joe Paschal’s name on the list of faculty who are retiring this year. Paschal — better known as B.J. — has been one of the Daily News’ most prodigious opinion writers for quite some time now. Paschal’s letters to the editor and “Your Turn” columns flowed like water into the newsroom, on an astounding range of diverse topics. Just Tuesday, executive assistant to the president Richard McKee praised Paschal for his wide base of knowledge. Though no one would mistake Paschal for a Republican, his targets were many, from national figures to first-year reporters. Many a writer’s research and logic was questioned by Paschal, put under the microscope and taken apart by everyone’s favorite education psychology professor. No one is quite sure how long Paschal has been writing, but retired Daily News adviser David Knott said Paschal was already writing when he arrived, in 1977. Most on the editorial board have never met Paschal, but we have devel- oped a love-hate relationship with him. Paschal and the Daily News often quibbled over editing and submission guidelines. But whenever copy was needed for the opinion page, we knew we could rely on him. He was so reliable, in fact, that many theorize he opens a newspaper every day not to read, but to look for something to respond to. Farewell, B.J. Don’t forget to write.
