Misc.

Here is an idea for all Albuquerque Journal reporters.  Every time you  write a story print out a version that you hand in to the editor.  Then after the rightwing editor gets done editing your piece, print that out also put it in a personal paper file.  And when you finally can't take the bullshit from him any more, quit your job and make your file public.  Send it to the Columbia Journalism review.  Find a lawyer and sue the crap out of the publisher for forcing you to quit your job because you were coerced into being unethical.

The Governor's xenophobic stand on drivers licenses is going to get another go around.  She thinks we are over run by undocumented brown people from the south.  But consider this Pew Poll. The states who went to two tier licensing systems and have a much bigger percentage wise population of undocumented immigrants and yet they all have gangbuster economic growth.  The are leaving our hapless governor and her neo con advisors and Journal editors in the dust.  If they were to look at real data, they would see our population of undocumented has fallen.

I think if the Journal reporters did what you suggest, there'd be a line of attorneys willing to represent them for nothing. The Journal is a cancer, causing our community to die a slow death, one day at a time.

Yea. Really looking forward to having to get a passport in order to fly to Denver. This drivers license policy has proven to be a genius move.

Bob Clark and Scott Stigler of 770 KKOB are also doing their best to serve NM residents biased and slanted. agenda driven narratives instead of truly informing listeners. The media in this town is embarrassing.

How can the Journal and the mainstream media continue to ignore the fact that Berry has not settled the APD contract? They let Berry cry about having the legislature fix his problems (double dipping) and not a single one of them has the courage or the smarts to ask WHY DON'T YOU SETTLE THE POLICE CONTRACT BEFORE YOU BEG THE LEGISLATURE TO BAIL YOU OUT? What is wrong with the media in this town? They are either bought off by the politicians or they are simply stupid. Which one do they pick?
