On Wednesday, I remotely attended a Winthrop Town Council meeting where Ed Zuckerman, selected that evening to be the next town councilmember, referenced an editorial by Methow Valley News Publisher Don Nelson encouraging people to apply for the council seat.
It reminded me to catch up on Mr. Nelson’s editorials, which I did. Mr. Nelson has not shied away from being upfront about where he stands on things locally and nationally. That is his right,…
You do see the big picture as to the MVN. I look forward to the day Don Nelson sells the MVN!
Julia, I think you are correct that half the valley population is being marginalized. The openly bias position of the editor of the MVN is disgraceful. Does he call himself a journalist? What happened to the fair and balanced position a news source should take to be considered credible? Granted, his statement is on the opinion page, but when an editor uses the language you reported on, I believe he discredits himself and his paper. Shouldn’t he welcome feedback, and publish perspectives that differ from his own? Thank you Julia for the “truth” you are reporting on.
The truth is Alex and Renee were murdered in cold blood unnecessarily by ice agents. Believe your eyes not the narrative coming from this criminal administration.
