They had a reporter at the WYCO Bureau by the name of Steve Nicely who retired from reporting on former mayor Carol Marinovich and immediately went to work for her re-election campaign with absolutely no difference in style or content.<br /><br />His successor, Mark Wiebe has taken the same approach to writing about the UG. WHile the local weekly was more than happy to report on the drastic overappraisals by the county Weibe not only fled from the story, he actually wrote stories talking about how taxes were going down. <br /><br />The same could be said for virtually every beat they cover. My problem with The Star isn't that it's left, it's that it's corrupt.John Altevogthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15537336489001296295noreply@blogger.com
