Looks like another Editor at the D&C is taking a stroll down Hypocrisy Lane.
As
we have seen that both comments and posts have been disappearing lately
from the D&C’s website, I have included screen shots at the bottom
of this blog of both the bloggers profile and the text of the article in
discussion.
Now the expected, if not cliche, question to ask
would be “What if a white Republican were to criticize the grammar being
used by a black member of the opposing party?" Especially a sitting
member of Congress. I will let you all handle that in the comments
yourselves.
What I would like to address is how I, along with
others, were accused by both Karen Magnuson and Jim Lawrence yesterday
of attacking Jim personally by bringing up the fact that his name is
found in public records as to having tax issues with NYS. I am still
waiting to hear from either of them how we are attacking Jim but they
aren’t attacking the folks they reported on in their story. Something
tells me I have a long wait ahead of me.
Now on to the hypocrisy!
Kevin Frisch is listed on the D&C’s website as the “Digital Opinion
Editor” since December 2011. He titled his article “Out of the mouths of
Boobs”. Correct me if I am wrong but isn’t calling someone a name a
“personal attack” and with that against the D&C’s terms and
conditions? Why no calls from Jim or Karen to have Kevin's post removed?
He goes on to say “He’s a congressional representative. Allegedly.” FYI
Kevin, There is no allegedly here. He was elected and will continue to
be a congressional representative until he either leaves office or is
voted out.
Kevin questions whether the comments made by Rep West
are deserving of a response due to the improper grammar but was willing
to offer one himself. So the answer according to you Kevin is yes.
