textChronicle Attack on DBI Chief Ignores Facts by Beyond Chron (reposted)
In its August 21 column alleging unethical behavior by DBI Chief Amy Lee, Chronicle columnists Matier & Ross continue a disturbing trend of getting key facts wrong. In this case, the columnists allege that Lee had a cash shortage that motivated her to ask Building Commissioner Roy Guinnane for a loan. But Lee told the Chronicle’s Phil Matier that she never had a cash shortfall. The Chronicle also reports that Lee used Guinnane’s money to pay her contractor, a claim that Lee flatly told Matier...

textPrisons: Alexander Propose Saving Californians $20 Billion by Stewart A. Alexander
Widespread spending abuse in California’s prison system has more than doubled since Governor Schwarzenegger was elected in 2003 and the governor has failed to address a growing prison crisis. However the governor has been more concerned with building more prisons to deal with the state’s growing prison population; now over 172,000 inmates in a system designed to accommodate less than 100,000. Stewart Alexander, Candidate for California Lieutenant Governor with the Peace and Freedom Party, w...

textNewsom Neglects Tenderloin In Endorsement of Black by Casy Mills, Beyond Chron (reposted)
In a press release declaring his support of District 6 candidate Rob Black, Mayor Gavin Newsom displayed a poor understanding of the district’s make-up. Newsom describes District 6 as including “Downtown, the Financial District, the Upper Mission, South Beach, SOMA, and Treasure Island.” The description somehow neglected to mention the Tenderloin, the most densely populated and lowest income neighborhood in the area. It also mentions the ‘Upper Mission,’ a term you’d be hard pressed to find a...
