McClatchy tells us that “McCanless, 51, has spent 25 years
in the newspaper industry as a chief financial officer and finance executive.” There
was no way the people of middle Georgia could know what they were in for.
The Telegraph has always been known for their problems and
the way they have twisted things. The bigotry of The Telegraph goes back a long
way. The late Ron Woodgeard while serving as The Telegraph’s Editorial Page
Editor pointed this out as early as January of 2001.
Woodgeard tells us that “Whenever I would utter an
unflattering truth about Mr. Clinton before my liberal colleagues, I would be
dismissed as a Clinton hater.” He tells us how: “The effect is often calculated
by the accuser, of course.” And how “It’s intended to place you on the defensive,
to generate doubt and to divert the discussion from the issue at hand.”
Whatever, at least The Telegraph carried the news. Of course
they twisted things to their satisfaction, but they printed it.
Then McCanless came along and things changed. McClatchy
tells us that: “His leadership and passion for community service will serve
The Telegraph well.” He is quoted as saying “I am eager to become a part of the
ongoing effort to expand our audience both in print and online.”
That
is comical, McCanless has accomplished neither. In fact on May 15, 2011he tells
us how: Home
delivery to stop outside of core counties
What they did not tell us is that he would assume the right to decide what news the people of middle Georgia was entitled to. They did not tell us that when the Editorial Page Editor Charles E. Richardson got caught dining off of the taxpayers’ dime courtesy of the Bibb County School Superintendent, Dr. Dallemand, McCanless would rush to Richardson’s defense. You can see more on that here: The Telegraph Never Thought Anyone Else Would Take a Second Look?
The Telegraph President and Publisher George McCanless
pointed out as early as July 2010 that he would decide what news the people of
middle Georgia was entitled to for their hard earned money.
In an e-mail to us on that date he tells us that “…our
commitment is to THIS (his caps) community….” He then address the subject of
our e-mail which caused the response, which was why there was a lack of
coverage about the ethical problems of Maxine Waters (D-Cal.) and Charlie
Rangel (D-NY). While ignoring the Waters problems he tells us that: “Rep.
Rangel has been charged with ethic violations and they will now be debated at a
public hearing of the ethics panel next week.” He then establishes the standard
at The Telegraph required for coverage of Democratic ethical problems telling
us that: “He hasn’t been convicted of anything --- yet.” Then to make his point, he tells us “…I trust you get the message.”
If you follow such things you will notice again there has
been no coverage of Rep. Rangel’s reelection
problems resulting from the last election. It appears as if the
reelection has gone
to the courts. Of course any coverage of this would contradict The
Telegraph’s position that there is no voter fraud and therefor no need for
voter picture ID.
Now, The Telegraph’s contention that the first black
Attorney General’s “Contempt of Congress” for his deceit and dishonesty about “Fast
and Furious” and the fact that the first black President has declared
“Executive
Privilege” to cover for him is not news is nothing short of ludicrous.
After failing to cover all this The Telegraph reiterates
that it is not news and they have no intention of devoting any time to it.
Clearly like the Editorial Page Editor Charles E. Richardson’s
“lousy
lunches” and his wife’s job working for Dr. Dallemand, the Bibb
County School Superintendent for “over
70,000 reasons….” See the second
paragraph from the bottom. It would seem that The Telegraph’s is more
interested in covering things up than acting as the community’s “watch dog”.
Are we to believe that the death of two
federal agents and hundreds of Mexicans which are linked to this fiasco
are not news?
Although most people would conclude that The Telegraph’s Editorial
Page Editor Charles E. Richardson’s influence pedaling would be a violation of
McClatchy Newspapers’ “Code of business Conduct and Business Ethics…” which the
President and Publisher George McCanless tells us “…that all or our employees have
to sign.” It does not seem to bother McCanless.
If indeed it is a violation of this code, surely the fact
that The Telegraph’s President and Publisher George McCanless has not mentioned
the fact that Richardson’s wife is working for a man Richardson has heatedly
defended in the past is a cause to wonder if McCanless himself is not in
violation of that code. Perhaps we should ask McClatchy Newspapers this
question.
We have to ask, would you trust these people?
Have a nice day.
