Our not so free press

There was one red hot outlet for critics of the Red Plan. Carinda Horton KDAL’s talk show host had been burning up the airwaves on KDAL with her withering commentary on the Red Plan. She was requesting information on the plan and when District officials and JCI wouldn’t appear on her show she let them have it……until Friday.

That was Carinda’s last broadcast. When her program was over she was given the pink slip and shut up. Some Syndicated financial expert has taken her place.

An ex city councilor called me up and said a few calls to KDAL had more or less confirmed the suspicion that someone wanted Carinda shut up. Expect all the other radio hosts who take pot shots at the Red Plan to steer clear of that topic. The free press ain’t all that free.
