MURRIETA OPEN FORUM - Get it said, get it read, communications for the community.

Imaginative reporting at Temecula Valley News.

"Ed Faunce did not say that RM was continuing to go after councilmen Seyarto and McAllister. That statement was reported by Nancy Fay, a cub reporter for the Temecula Valley News.

Fay has made many errors in her brief career. chief among her failings is the tendency to report her personal opinions as fact.

RM has already received numerous contacts from residents of Murrieta as well as citizen groups from other cities. RM volunteers spent over 11 months in the recall fight. a brief rest is both needed and deserved."

Ed Faunce

Thanks for the clarification. I checked back and Valley News has been the only paper to credit Ed Faunce with making this statement. This is a good example of how a careless news vehicle can unintentionally create the news rather than report it.

  • Facts are Facts, opinions are no substitute.

    Frankly, I am not too impressed with ms. fay's ability to seperate the two.
