Greenwich Roundup said...

Dear Meg,

You are most welcome.

You do great work.

There have been a few groups that have made me aware of community events.

The previous one was the B.E.S.T. event at Richard's Department store.

Several Greenwich blogs also have made me aware of when they have new posts.

These blog announcements are quite popular, because they have a very high click through rate.

The majority of the correspondence with Greenwich Roundup involves persons sending in news tips.

A lot of times these persons have approached the main stream press in town and felt that their story has been only partially covered or totally ignored by the town's newspapers.

I am sympathetic to these persons, because in the past I have had the main stream press do the same thing to me.

Unfortunately, there are so many members of Greenwich society that are ignored and treated like third class citizens by the three newspapers in town.

For example, their is a poor Greenwich farmer who is losing his farm up on king street to Ken Watson at Mercedes Benz of Greenwich.

This poor farmer has been hustled out of his land by this robber baron who born with a silver spoon stuck in his mouth.

In fact, these low life degenerates at Mercedes Benz of Greenwich tried and failed to get an agreement that would gag the farmer from telling what has happened to him and his farm.

According to the farmer, one of the Greenwich Time reporters told him that the paper had been threatened by these rich little punks at Mercedes Benz of Greenwich and the paper is now afraid to tell the citizens of Greenwich the whole story about what has happened at Purdy farm.

The Greenwich Citizen and the Greenwich Post have both totally ignored this poor farmer up on King Street.

But the mainstream press in Greenwich is often afraid to tell us the truth.

Years after the sweet young girl Martha Moxley was killed in Greenwich, the Greenwich Time did a huge investigative report on the murder and then refused to publish the report.

Why did the Greenwich Time sit on the report, because of a threat of a lawsuit from some powerful rich folks.

The girl's murder remained unsolved until Murder In Greenwich was published decades later, by out of town investigative journalists.

Martha Moxley's murderer lived the good live for decades and this farmer is losing his land, because the Greenwich Time was and is afraid to take a news story to where ever it may lead.

It is a shame that the Greenwich newspapers don't have the guts to go out and tell the single family home-owners of Greenwich what is really going on.

sincerely,

Brian
