Did A New Majority Republican County Council Drive The MSM Away?




Last night Wicomico County swore in a new Council, 6 out of 7 Republicans. However, there was no MSM, (Main Stream Media) present.

It was a very pleasurable event. Many kind words were spoken and much thanks offered to constituents and supporters.

I know each and every Council Member personally and quite frankly this could be the best Council Wicomico County has ever seen and you're going to need it. Times are very tough right now and tightening the belt is an understatement. Cuts will be painful but absolutely necessary to survive this horrible economy.

I did see a hand full of AFP Members present for the first time in quite a while. They asked for night meetings but they haven't participated like some of us expected. Perhaps that will change in the near future.

Nevertheless, we congratulate the new Council and give thanks for those who served in the past.

Arn't you big enough to be called
MSM?

anonymous 10:25, yes. However, I am not a journalist, I am a Blogger. I wouldn't want to be associated in the same reference and at this point I wouldn't want to be called MSM. Two different styles, two different businesses. A Blogger is allowed to be opinionated, above and beyond the MSM. Many MSM outlets have attempted to become Bloggers, but they failed miserably. Big difference between the two.

They have their work cut-out for them. Good luck.

The title is misleading--it implies that the new members somehow prevented the MSM when the truth is that because they were not the "Party of Choice" of the MSM the MSM did not want to acknowledge them.
