In 2011, David Corder didn't write that the Board of Health shut down Katie Belle's and Margarita Republic for the same reasons on the same day.
Fair journalism?

I'm all for fairness in journalism. But the issue here is Takis having 3 high-priority violations. These violations can contribute to food-borne illness. Shouldn't the public be notified? Yes, because it likely tells something about the character of the owner(s) if he/she allows violations to continue unchecked. The roaches didn't just start up on the day of the inspection.
And how about the employee who didn't wash his/her hands before putting on gloves. A restaurant worker could spread hepatitis this way.
