The Telegraph and their con jobs.

Well, well after the Executive Editor Sherrie Marshall telling the world about The Telegraph’s all-encompassing powers in “vetting political candidates” they now fail to even inform them about critical and important acts of the Obama Administration. As you read the comments below remember what is in this video because this is how The Telegraph decides what you get in the paper as news.


In the past she has told us that The Telegraph: 
“Editorial page staffs can research candidates’ voting records, read archived stories about them, even tell readers whether candidates have been fiscally responsible by, say, avoiding bankruptcy or paying their taxes on time. Editorial page editors also have incredible access; when invited to come in for a one-on-one grilling, candidates usually accept.”
She talks about how “These days, candidates’ Web sites spell out in detail their positions on a range of issues.” Marshall then warns that "Of course, voters have to trust the candidate isn't loading up on the good stuff and omitting things that might give voters pause.”

This is exactly what The Telegraph has been doing for the last four years! Do you think Marshall is being honest and ethical?

Executive Editor Sherrie Marshall explains how not endorsing candidates “…would be to abdicate the newspaper’s role as a leader and critical voice in the community.” She continues with “Imagine the wrongs that wouldn't be uncovered if a newspaper constantly worried about offending sources or even some readers.”
She talks about how “…a newspaper’s role in sorting truth from fiction, in digging deep, is more important than ever.”

That is exactly right for an honest newspaper but as for as we can tell it hardly applies to The Telegraph.

Now we come to The Telegraph President and Publisher George McCanless who in the past has made some interesting comments. He Tells us how The Telegraph goes “…beyond just reporting the news by providing an opinion section where we take a stand on the important issues of the day.” He then asks “How could we ever expect you to respect our opinions on the many issues we write about day after day if we were to duck taking a stance on this election?”

He has to be joking about the respect thing as respect is something that is earned usually with honest and moral conduct. Certainly where respect for a newspaper is concerned there has to be some semblance of journalistic integrity.  

Well if we look back at the things they have not covered and when on the last Sunday of October they endorse a candidate for president we should all look back and see how they have scammed the people of middle Georgia while promoting The Telegraph as middle Georgia’s newspaper.

The circulation of The Telegraph has steadily declined since the arrival of George McCanless and we predict will continue to do so.

However if your comments do not agree with The Telegraph do not complain. To do so endangers you very soul as the McClatchy owned Telegraph demonstrates.


Have a nice day.
