You are a gossipy neighborhood blogger posting mostly your own steadfast opinions on town issues (AFD good! Cherry Hill bad! Parades good! Parties bad!)<br /><br />For one thing, f you were a real journalist, you would not be a Town Meeting member. Surely in whatever journalism classes you have taken, they taught you about conflict of interest ...<br /><br />As usual, you will enact your own right to censorship and won't publish this because it disagrees with you.

Which is A-ok with me because after all, this is your blog. But it drives me nuts when you purport to be a journalist, reporting news in an objective fashion. Nothing could be further from the truth. Also, the news you DECIDE to write about also is heavily biased based on your opinion. Again, fine since this is your blog, but to say you are an objective journalist of some sort is WAY beyond the pale.<br /><br />Even the comments you choose to publish are subject to your opinion and bias on a subject.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035949355013113578.post-1754903354602789652013-05-22T11:58:30.633-04:002013-05-22T11:58:30.633-04:00Both.Both.Larry Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02614645831526190536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035949355013113578.post-67039450550445783042013-05-22T11:56:47.802-04:002013-05-22T11:56:47.802-04:00Is it the "truth" you portend to report,...Is it <i>the</i> "truth" you portend to report, or <i>your</i> "seeking of the truth"?<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
