Northampton County DA John Morganelli summoned me to his office today. I thought it was another arrest warrant and brought rubber underwear, but it turns out he invited me to a news conference. NBC, WFMZ, Express Times, Morning Call, AOL Patch and ... moi. I felt very important until the news conference started.
Morganelli: "I'd like to thank members of the press for coming to today's news conference. You too, Bernie."

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
So what was the news conference about?
ReplyDeleteYou should be proud to be disassociated from the media. Shouldn't Morgy be announcing his next political campaign for some race he'll lose?
ReplyDeleteSo, Bernie -- you're in a class by yourself, that's all. What a compliment!
ReplyDeleteI'm curious. What percentage of people who refuse to believe the "liberal media" also have doubts about science?
ReplyDeleteBernie should be proud to be associated with the media. I noted at a recent meeting that his presence should so noted in our minutes. Whether he is on target or off the track on an issue he has brought it into our town square and we benefit by the discourse he provokes.
ReplyDeleteJim, I like you much better when you're disparaging me. Just for that, I'm coming to the next Planning Commission extra smelly.
ReplyDeleteI'll tell you what the news conference was about in about an hour.
ReplyDeleteEverybody is mentioning you by name these days.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea my name was asshole.
