And if you respond and have time, tell me what you dislike about the Times...please don't say it liberal because that is trite, overused and not factual...I am speaking of news coverage.
They have a very specific slant that deeply offends me but do not feel comfortable discussing it here.

If someday we ever meet would be happy to tell you.

I do disagree with their political philosophy but they are entitled to that.

In general I am offended by journalists writing news article that do more than report the news. Editorials do belong on the editorial page.

Just ask Me! I will tell you the truth. I may tell you “In my opinion.....”, or I may say “ I don’t know”, which for most of us - on most topics - is The Truth”

I LIKE the Daily Sun.

I read the Washington Post and the New York Times and do not always agree with their editorial opinions.

I Like The Villages.

We have lived here now a total of fifteen years and it is well run, lovely, clean, no drama from The developers who we admire as a constantly improving and larger and larger company, employing a lot of people and enabling a lot of other good businesses and the Charter Schools for employees.

I Like getting older here.
It is easier than getting all wrinkled and my back getting crooked and can't hear as well in front of a lot of college students. It is nice to fit in.

Good morning. It is a coolish but BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE VILLAGES.

Exclamation Understand

I understand some are great and in some cases fanatical supporters of the Developer and to the degree it is "opinions" then it is fine. But words have meaning and when they go beyond the boundaries of opinion and start to express opinions as fact supported by "fake statistics" then it is time to address the issue. I believe if you say it and profess it is true by using fake facts then you should be held accountable.

Mr. Penn. I was referring to the site, public record, that tells how folks vote. There is one for Sumter County. Updated every day. I was referring to my social interactions with people here over the last fifteen years and their inferences or downright open comments. I was referring to things that can easily be referenced and from that opinions drawn as to a certain "climate" here, or say on a college campus. Ours here is usually opposite from that on a college campus, may be due to age or other factors. That is all I can say. I do not want to get into trouble with our moderators. I try VERY hard to state my opinions based on recognizable valid sources. Happy Easter, Mr. Penn. Our family had an unexpected turn of events and a hospitalization where all has gone well. We are all so grateful for good things today.

Question Rules

As I understand the rules it is not allowed to direct comments towards another user so
I will make sure I meet the spirit of the rule. My concern continues to be with stating a
statistical conclusion without the basic facts to support a Statistical Analysis. It use to
be this was kind of an annoyance however it has allegedly become a pervasive way of
passing on fake news and it has gone beyond the boundaries of truth. We wish all a
wonderful Easter!

If I were told I was.....whatever....and that is based on me living in a community that.....and then citing voting records.

I would be highly insulted
