Fighting Ugly Plaque "Authorized Journalist" Style


Paul W. Davis reminds me that I should have pointed out one other troubling indicator on yesterday's plaque presentation:

A point that needs to be raised:

"This plaque and two others just like were sent to the Lawrence Police Department over the weekend. This image has been altered at the request of thepolice department to take out other wording engraved on the plaque, as it isevidence in an investigation.

Found here.

This is no different than Soviet "journalism." Investigation my eye, the sender knows exactly what was on them, as do the police. Just who are they hiding it from?

You are correct, there is no cause for investigation. However, the more disturbing problem is the complicity of the newspaper in covering up what is really going on here.

The hit dog yelps the loudest.

Well, uh, yeah Paul. You don't expect "Authorized Journalists" to be, like, government watchdogs or anything, do you...? Or champions of the First Amendment...?

As long as we're on the subject, I trust everyone had an opportunity to read straightarrow's email to the chief?
