How do you hype a story on the appointment of another commission? How many studies, panels, commissions, engineering plans and whatever have been done to ease flooding in the Passaic River Basin in the last 50 years? But for the lazy, incompetent editors of The Record of Woodland Park -- who had no better story -- all you need is a nice color photo and an inaccurate headline to get the story all over the front page today.
Fighting back the floods
Great headline. Makes Governor Christie look like he's doing something. But so far from the truth, it's laughable.
Starting on Page 1 and continuing in Local today is the real news of the day -- fallout from state aid cuts, pension reforms and school budget rejections, but readers will look in vain for any news about Hackensack, where the paper was founded in 1895 and prospered for more than 110 years.
See the comment on the newspaper's staff submitted by Jerry DeMarco at the end of Friday's post.
