Quit referring to Ritz as a Republican. He himself considers himself "independent" and the Republican Party is doing it's best to kick him out.

BVW, I'm certainly not a fan of the liberal slant of this paper. However, I do realize this a "niche" paper and because of that, I have no problem with the viewpoints presented. By the way, Chris Herrington does an excellent job with the Grizzlies.
OTP says:
"The ACA has to be liberal, hell, the majority of it's potential readers are liberal. The advertisers are trying to reach these groups."
The problem with that strategy: The majority of those willing and able to pay for quality are conservatives.
Also OTP, you never answered my question about Millington Municipal School District. It would be 1/4 African American and an addition 6% other minorities. Would you scream racism at their leaders? Is that enough for racial diversity? Where do you draw the line? Let's have federal law dictate that all schools must have a racial makeup of 50% African American to 50% white! Wait what about Hispanics, Asians, and the Native Americans?! You see where I'm going with your argument?
