Forty years ago, when I began a career in journalism in Connecticut, most towns had a reasonably well-staffed, thriving weekly newspaper. And the area had a substantial, award-winning daily paper. Newtown is fortunate to have The Bee and should not take it for granted.

In Response To “An Open Letter From Newtown’s State Delegation”

The screenshots from NAFC's private group show prominent members of the organization naming businesses that hosted certain political signs ahead of the last election as these allies self-organized to crowdsource a running list of businesses not to patronize for the sin of supporting candidates such as [gasp] our incumbent State Rep who has a great record with small business associations - claiming that makes them unsafe. The NAFC official account was involved in moderating the discussion as they banned one "problematic" member for questioning the "witch hunt." This tacit threat to the livelihoods of local business owners has a chilling effect on free speech, yet the response from the organization was to claim that anyone who saw it as bullying was "stifling such conversations." If anyone is interested these screenshots are widely available.

Newtown Allies Discusses Recent Rumors

Someone either does not understand how the state legislative process works, or is willfully misleading people to try to make the delegation look bad. I hope it is the former scenario.
