Why would the Ventura County Star splash incorrect information across their web page? Why does a right-wing rant get first billing?
We ask that the Editoral Board of the Star answer this question for us, please. Why is someone like extreme Republican blogger Steve Frank given this credibility on the home page of the Star when your reporters easily uncover the false facts in his reporting the very next day? Mr. Frank reported incorrectly that a Democratic voter effort was being run illegally. Today, the facts come out in both reporter Timm Herdt's blog and another story.
Maybe you consider this news, but it eschews editorial staff statements that the Star weigh each political point of view to present balance and that they are committed to accuracy in reporting.
My father always told me to watch what people do and not what they say to get to the truth.
