GREENSBORO, NC -- Fast on the heels of complimenting the News & Record for not falling for some press release baloney, I am reminded by George Hartzman that the local daily still has a long way to go in tuning their B.S. meter.George points to this claim from an unsigned (how quaint) editorial at the News & Record regarding funding for a proposed performing arts center in Greensboro:
"They have private pledges totaling $20 million."That has come nowhere near being substantiated to any thinking person's satisfaction. It is an undocumented assertion.
In fact, the task force pushing the project has refused to identify any donors or otherwise provide any substantiation to their claims that they have $20 million to contribute to this project — as reported in the News & Record.
The anonymous writer(s?) of the editorial are trying to lead Greensboro in a whirl of the Ol' Greensboro Okee Doke™ and we're not going to dance along, thank you.
