  • Hello,

    Why are these kind of "news stories" always written by an unknown author?

    It's kind of obvious how your unknown author is pushing to divide our society with even "to identify, recruit, train and support progressive feminist candidates for election and appointment to public office.....regardless of......immigration status; ensuring reproductive freedom and health care services; achieving quality dependent care, and eradicating violence, poverty and discrimination.".

    It is obvious that discrimination is the goal of this organization. They discriminate in favor of illegal foreigners over americans citizens, they discriminate in favor of illegal women over illegal men; they discriminate in favor of "progressive feminist candidates" advocating death by abortion to children who are otherwise "unwanted"; and this organization claims by this discrimination it will thereby eradicate discrimination.

    Why doesn't the author post their name and identify? Real obvious why.

    This is what your journal will be known by, if you allow it.

    • Hello Gloria,

      When an article does not list an author, it typically means it is a press release from an organization. This article came from the Hays County Women's Caucus. When something is written by our staff or a contributing artist, we do our best to acknowledge the author. When there are multiple authors or staff members involved in a piece, we try to list the author as staff reports to show it is a collaborative effort.

      Sincerely, Staff

  • Hello To the "Staff"

    You reply to my question by saying "When an article does not list an author, it typically means it is a press release from an organization. This article came from the Hays County Women's Caucus."

    My question was "Why are these kind of “news stories” always written by an unknown author?"

    So you won't answer my question. And in place of an explanation, you say readers should "typically" know what your silence really means.

    We do. You work at tearing down centuries of culture replaced with illegal aliens, "progressive feminists" and child killers submitted via anonymous sources.

    Differences between Ownership and Staff of SM Corridor News? One omits telling you, and the other denies having said it.

    • Hi Gloria,

      We apologize. We are not certain who wrote the press release for the Hays County Political Women's Caucus, and we cannot answer your question about why the author is never identified. We do not know. We only know that the press release came from the communications person with the organization.

      We do not believe the organization wrote it with the purposes or underlying message you stated. We apologize it upset you.
