WHY IS OUR LOCAL PRESS (S.F.) SO OBSESSED WITH SPENDING OUR TAX DOLLARS?

Fellow bloggers have been discussing the purpose of our local press; essentially to be a watchdog for the citizens, especially when it comes to spending our tax dollars wisely. It seems our local press doesn’t care that half of SF is against building an Event Center, especially downtown. This past year they have supported, essentially wasting taxpayer’s money on ‘wants’ not ‘needs’ (Rec center, indoor pool, event center). It seems anything the AL endorses, fails, even political candidates. Where is the editorial support for snow gates on street plows that Staggers has been proposing for years! (it would help prevent 4 feet of snow being piled up in your driveway end).

Our local press needs to start concentrating on giving us news, not pipe dreams.
