Entertain Me, Please.....

Today I was told the Daily Times did a story about Mike Dunn filing ethics charges against certain City Council members. A friend confirmed their story was on page 2. HOWEVER, I looked just about everywhere on line and there's nothing there.

So, that being said, I'd love to know just why they're keeping it from the on line edition. Is it because their print edition is so minute any more that the only real audience they have left is on line? That would be my guess, allow me to explain.

You see, the ethics board kindly asked ALL involved to please hold off from saying anything to the public until AFTER they came through with their formal letter. Of course, this is exactly what I mean when I stated earlier today that the Daily Times and WBOC will simply manufacture news. They had no formal findings and had been asked to respectfully hold off.

Being that the Daily Times has fallen so far behind Salisbury News, they went ahead and printed an article anyway, a one sided article at that.

Mike Dunn, (former Council president) simply had his ass handed to him by the Board, yet the Daily Times put a spin on their findings. I was told Dunn called some liars and corrupt. Nothing like the good old Mike Dunn sense of humor, eh?

You see Folks, while we do not have the formal letter I can tell you that the ethics board ruled in favor of the Council Members as they did not violate anything.

The Daily Times has in fact hit rock bottom. They published a story without facts and simply QUOTED Mike Dunn, once again.

You made the right move cancelling your subscriptions to that wanna be newspaper folks. Salisbury News will deliver the ethics boards formal findings in the next few days once it becomes available.

My hat is tipped to the City Attorney and City Council for refusing to participate AND respecting the ethics boards wishes.

I'll close with this Folks. If you haven't figured it out yet, the Daily Times has been publishing BS stories lately, even planting a reporter, (who gets everything wrong) at all work sessions and council meetings to spew whatever Mayor Ireton and Laura Mitchell want published. They are quoting those two like there's no tomorrow and since I do attend many of these meetings I can tell you that once the Mayor spits out his hate, that reporter actually leaves the council chambers and sits in the hall with her laptop and starts putting together her story.

Mind you, this is usually within 30 minutes of the meeting getting started and its very clear she is there for only one purpose, to get the hate spread immediately and forget anything else that goes on. The Daily Times desperately wants to get rid of those council members they dislike and they are playing a political game many of us old Bloggers were targeted for many years ago. Funny how Greg Bassett goes on radio and TV spouting how they are held to a higher standard. That guy is so full of sh!t it isn't funny.

They just published yet another custom story for the old Tilghman Administration today and it goes to show you, none of them went away, including former Mayor Barrie Tilghman.

I know for a fact that the only people who were notified by phone by the ethics commission were Tilghman, the three council members and Dunn, and they were all asked to keep the news to themselves until the official statement was put out. I also know for a fact that the leak to the daily rag wasn't made by Tilghman or the three council people.
That leaves Dunn.

Yes! I heard Joe Carmean is "Delusional." Also heard he's in love with you, and dinosaurs.

I'll tell you how bad The Daily Times reporting is.
Remember just a few days ago The Daily Times did an article entitled;

'Md. Sen. gives preliminary approval to septic bill'

While I read the article I looked and looked for the Maryland Senate Bill Number - but guess what - The Daily Times forgot to publish the Senate Bill Number.

So I pose this question - isn't a reporter suppose to answer the basic questions - Who, What, When, Where, How, and Why.

Owe well - I ended up going to the Maryland General Assembly website and looked up the bill myself.

To The Daily Times Staff - you are really screwing-up big time.

Dunn put a post up on the other bloggers site this morning. I saw it there. It's gone now. Opps, his brain cells must of just kicked in and he realized it was not to be mentioned until an official report was issued.
