Shame on publisher for support of Brown

Your paper helped Steve Brown get elected four years ago. You gave him front-page free publicity every chance you got. Although you did criticize him on occasion, you endorsed him again.

Shame on you for visiting such a plague on your hometown of Peachtree City. The citizens of Peachtree City should remember what a disservice your paper has been to our town.

Maybe someone should contact your advertisers and let them know what they helped pay for in free ads for Steve Brown.

Thanks for nothing.

Yes, indeed historybuff - Cal's endorsement of Brown - last week and over the past 5 years by giving him all that free space is a disgrace and shows very poor judgemment on Cal's part. Sure he'd like to have Brown reelected for selfish reasons - specifically that Brown is a walking headline machine - those articles write themselves because Brown is such a self-centered fool. That's fine if you own a newspaper, but when it comes to the responsibility of running a city as mayor - Brown was the wrong choice for endorsement.

What if the fool actually got reelected? Would Cal have to accept some of the blame for influencing the uneducated voters? He sure would, and there sure are a lot of uneducated voters in PTC. Thank goodness it all worked out the way it did.

And yes Citizen advertisers send Cal a message that you don't appreciate his self-centered, irresponsible support of that clown Brown.

Cal doesn't have an opinion, he only parrots what his owner, Frank Caywood tells him to say. Besides, who cares - the election is over and everybody is happy we are rid of that annoying canker sore of a mayor. The other good news is its obvious that Cal or Caywood don't really have all that much influence. Maybe they'll sell the paper to Lenox - isn't that a good idea Robert W?
