3 count em 3

I noticed that School Board incumbent and candidate Ann Wasson got her third point of view column – not letter to the editor – in about a month’s time. She said little new that wasn’t already in the previous two columns. I can’t help wonder why the Trib would extend this extra push to a candidate unless it is applying the same kind of “fair and balanced” coverage afforded by Fox News.

Here’s a little graphic showing how the public views Fox’s neutrality compared to other television stations.

Challenger Marcia Stromgren got one in too but only one. And her taxes went up to beat the band as a result of Ann’s Red Plan:

“I was propelled into this candidacy almost two years ago when the school district’s portion of our family business taxes increased 339 percent.”

Life’s just not fair.
