Also, there must be some constitutional protection for preserving the right to choose who you spend your advertising dollars on, regardless of implied reason.<br /><br />But 'massage-gate' was only a medium warm scoop. Who was really surprised that such shenanigens routinely occur? And after their initial story the whole thing became all about anonymous quotes and opinions, some from persons of less than stellar integrity. The quotes attributed to un-named cops were at best shoddy journalism, at worst pure fabrication.<br /><br />If the Variety is truly the journalistic 'watchdog' their boss lady claims it would look into some of the things that went on not so long ago at the CNMI immigration pen instead of running self righteous drivel from its former Director, who presided over some truly awful occurances that would make the Guv's rub down appear absolutely innocent.g00$enoreply@blogger.com
