Without your reports the shore's political arena would not be exposed, and the "it's all in who you know" locals club would continue to ruin our towns. If we could only get the people in the communities to stand up and speak their peace without fear of retribution, we'd certainly be better off. However, with your blog, the worthless are exposed, the questions are being asked, and what you do, it does make a difference. You are not going to change every person who visits the site position, but for that one person that reads it, scratches their head and says "damn he has a valid point", they make it worthwhile to continue. You guys do an excellent job and have the right to brag! WAY TO GO!!

I can believe April was a great month in hits. A lot has gone on this month. I have been clicking on this site multiple times a day for the last several days hoping you would have the report up about the animal death. When are you expecting it to be out?

Joe:

Congratulations on the MILLION VISITORS website traffic... BUT let me tell you this:

YOU HAVE EARNED IT... PEOPLE DON'T COME BACK TO BULLSHIT WEBSITES

SBYNEWS provides relevant hard hitting stories...

Sure in the early days it may have seemed like some of the stories were personal attacks...

The only personal attacks I have seen are aimed at a persons PERFORMANCE in an official capacity. (not performance in the bedroom as some anti-JA bloggers claim)

Some people portray you as Jihad Joe slamming everyone and everything that moves on the Eastern Shore.

They are usually the same people whome you have spotlighted poor preformance in an "Official Capacity" like losing or misplacing $10 million of City funds, building the Taj Mahal of all firehouses for $1,500 per square foot or blowing the cover of a theft ring ripping off the citizens for hundreds of thousands a month.

Personally I am honored to have been invited to contribute to the success of this website. I never thought the ramblings of an angry man in Pocomoke City would be of much interest, and they are not...

But my wife Wymzie seems to have struck a chord in the hearts of many and for that I am truly greatful.

Your personal message to me last night about how the SBYnews has been instrumental in raising money & awareness for many local charities was enlightening. Sure we could all use a few more bucks in our pockets during these trying times, but its nice to see our efforts steer cash into the coffers of worthy causes.

To those of you who have an issue with Joe Albero, here is a wisdom key. The phone number at the top of the page is answered most of the time by Joe himself.

Have a probelm with Joe Albero? Pick up the phone and ask him about it in a civil manner.

If you are afraid of the phone send him an e-mail, heck he does not hide and his number and e-mail are at the top of every page.

Didja know that Joe & Boss Hogg don't agree on everything? If I "yessed" him on everything he would think I was a pussy and not worthy of friendship.

Guess what somethimes "Jihad Joe" thinks Billy Burke comes down a little too hard or a bit too crass in the way he writes about issues on the Pocomoke Tattler. I have not yet been slammed online its usually a friendly phone call or an e-mail.

WHATS UP WITH THE PEOPLE WHO USED TO BE WRITERS OF "FRIENDS" OF JOE THAT START WRITING ANTI-ALBERO BLOG PIECES?

Why would someone have a relationship, write on this blog, cross post to their own, tell Joe he is a great guy; then viciously turn on him?

Did the Mare or the Chief or Comptroller lean on you to change your tune?

I just don't get it how someone can be posting here like everything is OK than slamming Joe personally on another website... WFT???

In that scenario who is loyal?

It may be hard for the "Anti-Albero" bloggers to believe that JA is a decent guy with a good heart.

This political blogging movement is about right and wrong.

It's about freedom of speech.

It's about agreeing to disagree.

It's about exposing injustice...

It's about exposing abuse of power...

It's about exposing corruption.

It's about announcing meetings & events YOU & I can attend.

It's about the process of writing OUR opinions about things that happen.

Congratulations on having over 1-million visitors on the website.
