The battle between the News Sentinel and Knox County Commission
In today’s Knoxville News Sentinel there is an article titled “Discussions or Deliberations?”. It is somewhat humorous that at this late time that the powers that be at the News Sentinel have just figured out that the Sunshine Law lawsuit they have filed against Knox County Commission will ultimately hinge on how to define words like “deliberation” and “discussion”.
Gee, do you think?
The News Sentinel has for some time been trying to make their case in the newspaper. Which while not very ethical is not illegal. Yet today by posting a Timeline the News Sentinel shoots their case in the foot a few times. It appears that no one knows what “deliberation” and “discussion” is including the Knoxville News Sentinel. The Timeline also calls into question the actions of former Knox County Commissioner and current Knoxville One Question steering committee member John Schmid. Is much of this a case of sour grapes? Perhaps.
It is at times like this people might feel like the theme song for Knox County is “Heroes are hard to find”.
Is this # 9?
