Censorship?

You'll never get this type of honesty at Ripoff, the Trib or from City Hall for that matter. Ripoff has only the Wandering Blunderer, Mayberry (sp?) to please -- no executive committee; no other editors. He is the solo judge and jury of his content.

The Trib, well if you're not taking water samples at Calera Creek or embarking on some other self styled environmental feel good project under the guise of "Saving the Planet", fahgeddaboudit!

And as for City Council, this type of discussion would be occurring off-line in City Attorney Cecelia Quick's office (that is, if she didn't have to bring in consultants), or in the shadows of the always convenient "closed session".

And how about little ol' us? Well we have several editors who don't always agree on things. What a surprise! So what do we do? We wear our hearts on our sleeve. All of our cards are on the table (please give me a second and I'll come up with even more metaphors). Bottom line: we are doing our arguing in public for all to see. What more evidence can we provide as to our open, no censorship policy? And yes, editors censoring each other in no way affects the policy we have put in place for our readers.

So AnnoyingMouse and others who offer us nothing more than persistent whining as you excitedly wait to see us fail, well, you're just going to have to put up with us for a while longer. And yes, mommy and daddy will continue to fight. But don't worry, you kids can always call social services or sue us if you don't like the way we are treating you.
