all you need to know about the cheese business

I've been asked to proofread a short, fact-based article about two local cheesemakers because neither of them can read it with going into a frothing rage. Why? Because their families had bad blood from the dissolution of their partnership.

In 1948.

you can read it but it's pretty boring. none of the blood fued stuff is in there and there are lots of passive verbs so no one will get upset. the fact that this boring, dry article has them upset is the funniest thing of all.
