Jonestown County "journalism" regurgitates its own tail, again: on October 3, the Boobville News -- whose owner recently resorted to comparing himself to Benjamin Franklin, and proclaiming the limp literary effort "the last newspaper" -- printed a blind item about a Ukiah recall involving John McCowen and Ukiah Smart Growth, and when, on 7 October, infamously-inaccurate K.C. Meadows -- in the online "blog" she routinely republishes as front-page news in the following Sunday newspaper Ukiahns and others actually pay to read -- printed the "news" that John McCowen and others will recall a Ukiah Supervisor, a Ukiah Smart Growth statement [8 October, see below] claimed  -- no liberal in the land, it seems, dares to cross these creeps -- "We have no idea where K.C. Meadows got this incorrect information."
   On October 14 (today), an endless UDJ anti-rail opinion piece from a partner in the Boonville disinformation organization (the Boonville affiliation's never stated in Mark Scaramella's regular editorial byline in the UDJ), recycles Boonville editorial remarks from August as opinion du jour in the UDJ.
   "I don't read that newspaper," sniffs Mendocino County offialdom in unison, of the Boobville publication. As Ukiah's MediaNews daily and this terrorist weekly republish each other's worst efforts (plus the dreadful writing of Tom Hine) at an ever-increasing pace -- since the July re-encampment of the weekly's "editor", now of San Francisco, such examples abound (along with socially-sensitive drunk-driving omissions from the Sheriff's Log, and the papers' recent mutual un-mentioning -- possibly related to a current board election in the Mendocino Unified School District -- of Mendocino as among county towns hosting a Megan's-Listed child molester) -- maybe somebody'd better . . .

    Jonestown County journalism as usual: deliberate disinformation sold as news, this time about county "planning":

  • SMART GROWTH STATEMENT

    On the front page of the Ukiah Daily Journal on Sunday, October 7, and in K.C. Meadows' blog, it is incorrectly reported that the Ukiah Valley Smart Growth Coalition is holding a meeting at the Broiler Restaurant "to discuss launching a recall effort against Ukiah Supervisor Jim Wattenburger."
       We have no idea where K.C. Meadows got this incorrect information. There is no Coalition meeting scheduled for the Broiler Restaurant. The Coalition isn't involved in any recall against Jim Wattenburger, and we know of no such recall effort.
       Even if a recall effort was practical, it would be a very questionable action since Jim already faces a primary election in June. As you know, what the Coalition has done is to send an Open Letter to Jim Wattenburger asking him to reverse his August 21 vote designating certain General Plan amendments as his "preferred alternative."
       The Coalition hasn't taken any actions or positions regarding next year's Supervisor elections.   Our Open Letter speaks for itself and is posted at http://www.ukiahsmartgrowth.org/
