In addition to dealing with the headaches of a rumored Turnpike strike (he's a member of the Pa. Turnpike Commission; another reason why I always tell friends to get their EZPass tags in Delaware), Don Pasquale has been writing to the editorial pages of the Philadelphia Daily News (a fully paid subsidiary of the Democratic National Committee), which was published a few weeks ago.
This week's edition of the Northeast News Gleaner features the exact same commentary/manifesto from Don Pasquale, with a few words changed around.
The article in the News Gleaner, however, appears to be a little dated...
I also urge everyone to attend one of the public hearings SEPTA will be holding on the Contingency Plan proposals beginning on October 14, 2004 to express your concern about the future of public transit. Northeast News Gleaner
For starters, this appeared in the October 28 edition of the News Gleaner; the last SEPTA hearing was held on October 21. In fairness, this could've been a bad editing job by News Gleaner editors, but...
Maybe I missed something here, but I didn't think that someone was allowed to submit virtually the same statement with a few words switched around. After all, the same statement appeared in the Daily News on October 19, when 3 of the 5 hearings scheduled had already taken place.
Looks like someone needs a better publicist...
