more sleight of hand

i was distracted from election results by the surrounding story about the new aps accountability dodge.

there was also an editorial cartoon, made to order for the needs of the trib and mayor chavez, deliberately misleading readers about the real cause of the low turnout.

the excessively low turnout was due not to voter apathy. but do to a deliberate effort to disengage voters.

you will remember that chavez cites voter apathy as one of the reasons that justify his plan to usurp control over the school board.

likewise, voter apathy is a convenient cover for the trib's efforts to disengage voters.

the truth is ; the tribune is a poor source of the truth
about the leadership of the aps,
and by extension a poor source of the truth on any issue.
