ok so the News-Press is circling their Segways and dumbing down in efforts to prove they are right about publishing Peter Lance's DUI series....and saying they won't retract any of it even though the story was shot full of holes by Kasi Beutel's lawyers!! I can't swing a dead puppy now without hitting a lawyer!! unfortunately for the News-Press, they got idiots running the place and writing editorials, with Terry Tyler calling Lance "inherently biased, a rat and a snitch"....while trying to defend him!
"The recent series of investigative articles regarding a Santa Barbara city police officer's character have been dismissed by many because the author had previously been arrested by the officer in question. The inherent bias created by the author's prior arrest, and pending court case, were prominently disclosed each time an article on the issue was published. Since the series ran, there have been hardly any comments from the Police Department, city officials, or the District Attorney's Office. I have made inquires regarding this situation, and the response has been....
but Lance didn't disclose in any of the articles that he was biased......in fact, he said he "had no vendetta and his probe began as a dispassionate exercise in truth finding".... but he did try to sell his books in the pages of the News-Press... this is all pure inept salesmanship
another gem from Tyler is he wants the cops to use Segways to patrol the streets of Santa Barbara...in this day of budget concerns would you want the cops on bicycles at about $500 per bike or on brand new Segway scooters where you can expect to pay in the range of $5,350 to over $6,900 each!
always drink upstream from the herd....
