It just goes to show you that newspapers have no clue when it comes down to politics and what is happening on any level whether it be Local, State or National politics. Unless you are sitting at these Commission meetings every month and you listen and observe and pay close attention on how each Commissioner votes on an issue affecting our City, there is no way a newspaper can get an endorsement correct. Also, you have to consider that newspapers are in business to make money and they do that from advertising. Who are the biggest customers? Developers, Realtors and the like. The Post must be believing the lies…maybe Robert Kanjian, who knows.
How could the Post Review Board choose Commissioner Jennings on one hand and then pick Commissioner Vespo on the other? Don’t they know that these two people are politically diverse in every regard? Their main focus in the interviews was on our beach and going with the Sheriff's Department. Both these candidates are on the opposite end of the totem pole on these issues.
The Post has laid off (in buy-outs) close to 300 people or more right now and their subscription rate has been dropping every year for years according to the Post. More and more people are reading the news on-line.
Hint folks—do your own homework here. Vote OUT Dave Vespo. Vote in Varela. Vote for Shelley Vana. Vote NO on 99 year leases too!
