I want to comment misleading Journal Sentinel Editorial Board decided to stop endorsed the list of candidates ("Why we will make recommendations" Crossroads, Oct. 28). I am particularly disappointed that the editor of the editorial page editor page mission statement, is "to provide a forum, print and online, thoughtful, provocative comments." Of course, is what the opinion pages have to do, but the task As omitted mentioned, the basic historical task editorial - to try to move the public and policy direction of the Editorial Board believe that the best interests of society.
This is definitely Milwaukee sound of the mission of the magazine's editors, although I've never done the Milwaukee Sentinel Sentinel editorial apparently also in the past few decades, from their strong opinions. The core part is essential mission of the Journal Sentinel newspaper abandoned when? I guess I missed the announcement.
I strongly oppose the recognition of the Journal Sentinel Governor Scott Walker in the recent recall election, on the flimsiest of grounds, the recall should not be favored, because of the governor's policy stance. Take into account the fundamental changes rammed by Walker - his most radical in his original election campaign voiceless - Wisconsin citizens deserve to recall this potential remedies. Editorial Board supported the retention of Walker, despite radical, he ultimately achieve ulterior purpose is is a nausea anticlimactic.
Go with the avoidance of the most important race to vote in the November 6 this year, the President and U.S. Senator. Lead the election, I know the tremendous workload imposed in the approval process and exacerbate the contraction of the employees, but also difficult to justify the most important game of evading.
Editor's note: David Behrendt in Milwaukee magazine editorial page editor for 11 years a member of the Editorial Board of 25 years. Journal Sentinel he retired in 1998.
Thank you will not be approved candidates for public elections. Journal Sentinel wrote some excellent political interests, as well as the research of feature articles. Endorsement is often inconsistent and, frankly, confusing. They undermine the credibility of the news reports. What is best for our country and our country according to their own interpretation of the Journal Sentinel message along with other sources of information, readers can be calculated.
My favorite high school math teacher said, "would be a shame if all of us are like this?" Our democracy depends on an informed and thoughtful voters.
Commonwealth of Massachusetts as a citizen, I can only hope that the Boston Globe, Boston Herald, as well as all other media, whether print media, radio or television, will take the same philosophy does not endorse political candidates. Adhere to the story. Notify the user or audience, just the fact that respect for the readers, listeners or viewers in the wisdom of his or her own political choices. I would like to congratulate your newspaper.
In his Oct. 28 column, editorial page editor David D. Haynes parameters, because it is, despite the new policy, the political proposals are reasonable, it endorsed the recall election of Governor Scott Walker in the Sentinel Daily unreasonable to remove the policy dispute governor duties. recall should remain in the office or corruption and malfeasance. "
This may be because it is the views of the Editorial Board should be recalled that, but it is a departure from reality, barely legal, historical or factual basis for this reason. Wisconsin's Constitution provides for narrow information on the basis of the recall - its author (and citizens, has repeatedly used) Is there a clear indication of intention to do so. Although 19 states provide recall, in fact, limit their specific reasons, a clear majority (12), including Wisconsin, no.
Look at the historical memories: Wisconsin recall senator and a mayor of the five states in the country, only two successful gubernatorial recalled Lynn Frazier (North Dakota) and Gray · Davis (CA). Was recalled malfeasance or corruption, but the policy is misleading or personal behavior.
Impeachment is the appropriate mechanism to eliminate corruption and malfeasance, which is a characteristic of the nature of the offense and is worth the trial and potential conviction and punishment, and impeachment brought. Misguided policies and personal misconduct, but not criminal in nature, therefore, the National Constitution wise to remove them from the hands of politicians, on his knees on the citizens who employ official related matters for the first time to face. This is the main reason, the State Constitution provides another way to remove an elected official.
Walker recalled exception is more persuasive than rational rationalization. If you do not want to Editorial Board approval of anyone at this time, then do not. However, if required by the Board that it does not take sides, and then stop to take sides.
I was saddened, but not surprised, to read the editorial editor David Haynes explained why the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel will no longer be elected endorsement. Haynes spinning done a very good job, but it has been a very long time the Journal Sentinel, just more and more obvious in the rest of the newspaper is just another business.
Simple and endorse candidates, is bad for business. Hopefully newspapers offend a reader!
No, this is not another of those "Cancel my subscription!" Growl. My wife and I will continue to subscribe to and read, this is still a pretty good newspaper, Journal Sentinel Even without the endorsement. This is just sad, once thought to be a better newspaper to see further diminishment.
As a Chinese user, the company since its inception in 1939, when I was a newsboy, I applaud the Journal Sentinel, the paper independent decision. Journal Sentinel has long been known as the mouthpiece of the Democratic Party. Sometimes, I think to unsubscribe. Now, I look forward to many years of loyal readers. Thank you!
David D. Haynes, editorial page editor, wrote a long list to explain why the Journal Sentinel will no longer be a political endorsement. However, in the previous page of the October 28 the crossroads section, Editorial Board to give us "where candidates stand on this critical issue," which it praise and commend the failed economic policies of the current president and belittle the challenge 's ideas (we think, Oct. 28).
This is just the latest example of the president has done over the past five years is typical propaganda Journal Sentinel. Editorial Committee is not officially recognized by the president - whose endorsement is too clear to see.
