Jot Lanier
Son ? <<
With the 1982 gene~?.
election over, I was thinking
the political gobbly-de-gook
would be over for a while.
However, the very night of
the vote count, I was handed
"A Report to the People."
To call this "Report to the
People" anything but
^'political propaganda ? to
W show only one side of a
-many-sided program ? one
.would have to ignore the
?facts ? which is what this
-"Report to the People" is all
-about. . .Ignoring the facts. .
I.or presenting only the ones
that are in favor of the
writer's point of view. . .The
publication might be called a
mini-newspaper; however, it
holds no news, only personal
^ views. . .Printers call this an
? "in-house organ" which
means it tells of views
favored only by the ones
having it printed. . .In this
particular case,. I could
hardly say it presents the
views of the ones paying for
it, for the taxpayers are
? paying for it. . .And, the idea
! behind this thing is to sway
;the taxpayer in favor of
^ spending more tax money in
9 that area. . .Thus, the stories
arc slanted in favor of the
desired programs of those
running the tax-supported
institution.
Newspapers have a legal
and moral obligation to
present the facts as they fall.
. .Only in editorials and
columns can the newspaper
state its views. In printing
such as "A Report to the
People," the only view is a
~ personal one. There is
nothing to say it must pre
sent the facts. In fact, if only
those facts were to be pre
sented, the reason for its
publication would be non
existant. . .If it hasn't been
yet, this "Report to the
People" will be forced on
you. whether you want it or
not. .That is to say, if your
^ schoolage youngster doesn't
^ throw it away. . .Yes, that's
right. . .This "Report to the
People" is a Duplin County
Schools publication ? 16
tabloid pages of slanted in
formation. . .You might keep
this so-called report as an
example of why your taxes
will be increased in 1983. .
.Also, one other use for the
report. . .When an adminis
trator says he or she has no
extra time. . . .By the way.
this is where it really costs
taxpayers. . .not so much in
the printing cost, but when
those $30,000 plus tax-payed
administrators take time to
write stories. . .You know, I
heard about a news media
meeting in the Midwest (with
the media people) wanting to
start a school. . .It seems the
news-people didn't think
ft -
those running the school
knew what they were doing. .
.And I think those running
the school wanted to write a
newspaper....
????*
1 don't know how, but
someone sold Dean the
Barber a raffle ticket on a
turkey. . .Of course, he won.
. .Seems those who hold onto
the dollar the longest, win
when forced to buy some
thing with a winning possi
bility. . .1 was in his shop last
week and he was figuring
how to cut up that turkey into
steaks and sell turkey steak
sandwiches and cut hair at
the same time. . .Son-of-a
Gun. . . .
Ducks
Unlimited
Banquet
The Duplin County chapter
of Ducks Unlimited has an
nounced that its 4th annual
banquet will be held at the
Country Squire on Nov. 11 at
6:30. Chapter chairman C.
Johnson Sheffield of P.O.
Box 895, Warsaw, feels the
fund-raising function should
be marked on the calendar by
anyone who is interested in
the future of North Ameri
ca's waterfowl.
"The Ducks Unlimited
success story," said John
son, "is really starting to
spread around. Banquets
much like our chapter event
held throughout the country
last year contributed towards
Ducks Unlimited's national
fund-raising effort which
raised $30 million during
1981 alone. But what's even
more important to realize is
that this national fund-rais
ing total must increase this
year if the North American
waterfowl habitat race is to
he won
Tickets which are $30 each
include a one-year DU mem
bership and a subscription to
the organization's maga
zine. Call Sheffield at 293
3168 for tickets and further
details.
