Journal editors double standard on double standards

Journal editors took a stand this morning, link, averring the victim of the strong arm robbery by a politically connected bully, was a better role model than most of the adults around him.  The victim, they wrote, was reasonably upset over the double standards of most adults; the standards they say everyone must meet, and the standards they are actually willing to meet.

The editors, close personal friends with most of the leadership of the APS, are blind and deaf and dumb, when it comes to double standards and the APS.  Students are expected to "model and promote the Pillars of Character Counts!"; a nationally recognized, accepted and respected code of ethical conduct, while in stark contrast, board members and senior administrators are arguably unaccountable even to the law; the absolutely lowest standards of acceptable conduct among civilized human beings.

The editors have their own double standard; what's good for their cronies in the leadership of the APS, and what's good for everyone else.

Google the pot calling the kettle black; find
a group photograph of the Journal editorial staff.

I heard that Marty Esquivel represented the bully in court but I don't have proof. Maybe nmcourts.gov - case lookup may have it

Progress NM has emails showing how the Journal agreed to publish the Mayor's editorial and gave the Mayor's staff a while to get it drafted and reviewed. They also have emails about the Mayor using city staff for private campaigning. abq.progressnownm.org

I have no reason to believe Esquivel is representing anybody in this case particular case. If I hear differently, I will let you know.

Could you give us the link to the email you referenced with regard to communication between the Mayor and our newspaper of record?
