Rogue Forum, Reporting With A Slant

We are independent and serve no special interest. We offer you a chance to publish on the web

anything that may be of lasting value to people in the Rogue River Valley, in Oregon.

 
Volume 2 .......... Issue 5 ........... May 16, 2001

     
UR Independent Editor failed to note the many Upper Rogue Folks who make the program work and to honor the recent passing of Joyce Daniel who for so many years was the prime contact to those Upper Rogue citizens in need. EULOGY, to the Upper Rogues most missed treasure: Click here

Also editor should have been noted that Vic Corchero's mission was to educate the Council on reasons for current animosities being developed within Shady Cove and was thanked by Mayor Anderson.

P.S. Vic had already scheduled as he did state and did meet with Park management on May 17, 2002.

Tell Shady Cove It Ain’t So

Last week in The Independent article about the latest Shady Cove council meeting neatly disguised as: “Food and Friends” a very neat fallacy was perpetrated upon the residents of Shady Cove. And that is the idea that the proposed water district is only for the needy few in a limited area of our city. To be cost effective ALL of the residents must be included to pay off the debt and they know it. Richard Patterson of Leisure Days was only getting his renters ready for the inevitable hook-ups by being prophetic with them. To any of you residents who have any doubts about being signed, sealed, and delivered to this water district make a friendly call to city hall and ask for a print out of your sewer bill. There you will find water conveniently placed on the form for future reference. ( And we ain’t even voted yet!) Mr. Corchero who was reporting to the council and grateful mayor is often made out by the esteemed editor of this paper as being chronically wrong in his opposition to the policies of the present administration.. But more often than not he is in the know about our local issues. Another golden opportunity was missed with the omission of a word of thanks to a great volunteer who recently passed away. Joyce Daniels was instrumental in the Food and Friends Program and is respectfully remembered for her work on the rogue forum.com.

Yes, Nancy we sadly read every word that you write about local politics. And just like the wind, we know that directions can change. Be fair, be honest and report the truth. For shame if you do not.
