No reason to celebrate in Hackensack

I scanned the front-page stories on property taxes and school staffs today, but couldn't even find any mention of the city where The Record of Woodland Park was founded. Maybe I just missed it. Even the sensational baby-killing story is from Fairview.

Didn't Governor Christie run on a pledge to cut property levies? He must have meant next year or the year after that, so the Borgs and other wealthy families can get a respite from paying a surcharge on incomes over $400,000 -- thanks to Christie's refusal to reinstate the Corzine-era tax.

I also came up with no Hackensack coverage in Local.

Check out Staff Writer Elizabeth Llorente's story on L-1 about FBI visits to Americans who travel to Cuba in defiance of U.S. law. It's bad enough she herself is a non-objective Cuban exile, but is there anything more preposterous than a Cuban-born restaurant owner in Hackensack comparing travel to Cuba with not paying property taxes?
