Lived in Fenney since May of last year. Have yet to hear a PA. Have felt vibrations from the mine blasting about 4 times total in that time and all were less than 1 second. Very happy here.

Evidence? Don't need evidence!
The online news site relies on advertising to keep going.
Lots of site traffic can be used to impress prospective advertisers.
Confrontational Letters, Padded headlines, with a little stretching of the facts generate more 'clicks'.


A recent example.
New Yorker receives written warning after cat caught running loose at Water Oak

That headline generates more clicks than;

Stray cat found.

You're right. And a recent article in the online news called Delmar a dangerous street in The Villages, when in fact a driver ran a stop sign at Rio Grande. I think one or many at the online news have some type of ax to grind with the developer, the newspaper, or The Villages in general. I haven't seen very many resident complaints about prison noise, blasting or much of anything else. Fenney seems to make alot of Villagers happy.

Examples of either please.

All I see lately is angry. Snowbirds, roundabouts, noise... where is the good to balance it and even go over the top.
A pattern seems to be developing...…………...
