Last week I had posted a diary lamenting the fact that the Rochester Democrat (?) and Chronicle had yet to publish any mention of Louise Slaughter's involvement in the Gannongate Scandal. Louise Slaughter represents this part of Western NY and it is sickening the lack of coverage the local paper (and local media) has giving this story.
Anyway, after I called the Monroe County Democratic Committee, the local media, and, of course, Louise Slaughter's office to alert them to this total lack of reporting.... NOT ONE SINGLE ARTICLE OR MENTION OF GANNON AS OF FRIDAY FEB 18... ARGH!
An article appears in today's (Sunday, Feb 20) edition. I am sure the piece is not locally written (I didn't investigate that aspect yet) but it does appear in the paper! :)
A little late but with results! Thanks to all who supported the local effort to get this important story recognized!
