Maybe the Telegram (Tele-lie) should Try Some Truth in Advertising (I paid $9.00 for this article?) Buck Newton and the 8 Count.
Having read Jeffery Cooper’s article in the Rocky Mount Telegram’s Sunday edition I feel compelled to say a few things. Don’t believe everything you read in the Telegram.

Don’t Expect the Telegram to Give You “the truth”
Regarding the Rocky Mount Telegram: The Telegram editorial fails to mention the mud slinging by Newton prior to the release of any flyer. Most editors at the Telegram know all too well what has been going on behind the scenes regarding Tom Fetzer, the Local Tea Parties (Nash & Wilson) and the coordinated effort to…

Rocky Mount Telegram Can’t Count—or how to screw up a copy & paste in one easy lesson.
Maybe I’m wrong about this. If so, email me and (if you make sense) I’ll take this down. The headline says 50 dealers, $850m. OK-stop. That is $850 million, as in dollars? Right? But, as I read the article, it terns out only to be $850,000. Now, here’s my problem: this is a cut and…
