Denver Transportation Plan

posted in News commentary |

There’s been a lot of hand-wringing lately about the future of the newspaper industry. The Seattle Post-Intelligencer and Denver Rocky Mountain News both appear on the verge of going out of business. Without newspapers, “corruption will rise, legislation will more easily be captured by vested interests and voter turnout will fall.”

Funny, I’ve always found that the big-city daily newspapers were the ones doing the most to cover up corruption and protect special-interest groups. Meanwhile, the weekly papers, like Portland’s Willamette Week are the ones doing the investigative journalism breaking the stories like the Goldschmidt and Adams scandals.

In any case, here is a lengthy article from a Denver newsweekly about the city’s strategic transportation plan.

    Mr.O’Toole commenting on transit is like having the head of the KKK commenting on interracial marriage.

    Who’s the bigger FUDder? The one who uses FUD, or the one who uses FUD to label the first guy?
