Town Owned Newspapers -Coming to our town soon

There have been rumblings. Now Shandaken is the first town to embrace its own propaganda machine.The town of Shandaken last week struck a deal with the editor of the Fauxnicia Times, an unusual deal because it involves the newspaper and the government it covers.
Of course, we don’t expect this to impact the paper’s coverage of Shandaken government, since there is little in the way of hard hitting news and virtually no investigative reporting. Now we have a paper just like the old Townsman as the mouthpiece of the government.
No word on whether the town will change its motto from “where the eagles soar" to "where the eagle is a pinko".
 
Conservatives rule! A new poll by Rasmussen reveals 40% of those polled identify themselves are conservative, outpacing those who consider themselves liberals or moderates. This is great news as we head into 2010, which is likely to be one the most important year's yet for conservatives. We know we represent the values of most Americans, and we need to remember that as we forge ahead!
