Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter Is Too Busy Attacking A Critic To Assign A Reporter To Investigate Parents Complaints That Greenwich's Most Disadvantage Children Must Try To Learn In Modular Classrooms That Violate The Building Codes Of The State Of Connecticut.
The Last Time That Anyone In Town Remembers A Greenwich Time Editor Doing An Investigative Report Was When Ex-Greenwich Time Editor Joe Pisani admitted that the Greenwich Time did a poor job of covering the Martha Moxley Murder on on October. 30, 1975.
Most Everyone in town remembers that in the early eighties the Greenwich Time attempted to revive it's poor image by hiring investigative journalist Len Levitt to look into the unsolved murder case.
Levitt's story was based on more than 100 interviews and 400 pages of police documents turned over on the order of the state's Freedom of Information Commission, remained unpublished for nearly a decade.
The story was finally published over several pages in 1991.When Mr. Levitt appeared in an Editor & Publisher cover story bashing the newspapers for the long delay in publishing his work, Another Thin Skinned Greenwich Time Editor Joe Pisani Refused To Talk To Mr. Levitt Ever Again .
If Greenwich School Business Manager Susan Wallerstien Had A Leak In Her Office It Would Be Fixed With In 24 Hours, But If A Poor Child In A Classroom Trailer Has Water Pouring Into The Classroom No One At The Greenwich Time Cares.

Why Does Hearst Newspaper's President Steven Swartz Allow Bruce Hunter To Ignore The Poorest And Weakest Families Of Greenwich Society.
The Greenwich Time Has An Extremely Low Subscription Rate In Byram, Because Parental Complaints About The Hamilton Modulars, While Regurgitating School Press Releases And Listing Them As Local News On The Greenwich Time Web Site.
And Before Thin Skinned Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter Gets His Panties All In A Bunch Again. I Hope Some Will Tell Him That His Regurgitating Press Releases From School Groups Is Not An Article That Has Copyright Protection.
Greenwich Roundup Saw These Same School Press Releases On The Cablevion's Greenwich Educational Access Channel.
Thin Skinned Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter Has To Understand That The Truth Sometimes Hurts. The Facts Are That Hunter Does Not Have The Journalistic Balls To Report On What Is Really Happening In Those Modular Classrooms.
Bruce Hunter Is Clearly The Wrong Man At The Wrong Time To Lead The Greenwich Time As It Transitions Into The Digital Age
PLEASE ALSO SEE:
PLEASE SEE THE HAMILTON AVENUE NEWS STORY THAT THE HEARST NEWSPAPERS HAS FAILED TO COVER:
FOR THE RECORD:
Greenwich Roundup was the only news organization that reported about the water once again leaking at Hamilton Avenue School. Clueless Hearst Newspaper Editors Don Harrison (Greenwich Citizen) And Jim Zebora (Greenwich Time), as well as, the Greenwich Post editor have ignored HAS parents complaints that the modular are once again leaking.
PLEASE SEE:
THE MODULARS ARE HAVING WATER AND ELECTRICAL PROBLEMSFIRE ALARM HAS BEEN SET OFF DURING THE SCHOOL DAY!!!!
....The Hamilton Avenue School Principal is so self absorbed and concerned with her image and her career as an administrator, she has lost perspective. God help the children of Hamilton Avenue School as they are shoved in a school that is not up to code.
Where is Ken West the building maintenance supervisor?How is this trailer park permitted to stay open?If this were a private home it would be condemned.
Go Back To Your Wet And Unsafe Modular Classrooms!!!!.....Principal Damaris Rau sounds like an idiot. She should not be in charge of one child, never mind a school full of kids....
Thin Skinned Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter knows that before anyone goes to the weekly newspapers or the bloggers with a story they go to the "Yellowch Time" first.
The "Yellowich Time" gets first shot at virtually every news story in town and they often bungle thier chance.
When Hamilton Avenue mothers went to Jim Zebora's crew complaining that the modular classrooms were leaking they were REPEATEDLY ignored Ex-Greenwich Time Editor Joe Pisani.
When those same Hamilton Avenue Mothers came to Greenwich Roundup we started publishing posts like this in February until Betty Sternberg was forced to shut down the modulars in March.
Please See:
There was not one previous article in the Greenwich Time
When Glenville Parents came to Ex-Greenwich Time Editor Jim Zebora And His Failed Reporting Crew with pictures and stories about the conditions inside thier school the Zorba crew could not be bothered with such trivial matters.
Please See:
When the "New And Improved" Hamilton Avenue Modulars were leaking AGAIN, the Ex-Greenwich Time Zebora And His Failed Reporting Crew once again could not be bothered.
Please See:
When a Greenwich parent got pictures of three heavily damaged classrooms in the "NEW" 30 Million Dollar Ham Ave School the Ex-Greenwich Time Editor Jim Zebora Crew was not interested and still has not fully reported whats going on inside that building.

Like It Or Not The Greenwich Time Editors Are Going To Have To Get Used To The Fact That Greenwich Roundup Is A Bit Edgy And Somewhat Rude When Greenwich Roundup Publishes A Post Like......
But isn't rude for Colin Gustafson to put up an August headline that insults the intelegence of every taxpayer in Greenwich?
By Colin Gustafson

A variety of unresolved facilities issues - most of them easy to fix - are preventing the Hamilton Avenue School from receiving sign-offs from inspectors necessary for students to return to the building, the school board told parents last night.
Broken glass needs to be repaired, as well as cracks in some of the floor-level surfaces that must be patched. .... Blah ..... Blah ...... blah ..... Blah ..... Blah ..... Ham Ave Is Opening On Time !!!!!!!
Thin Skinned Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter Is Ignoring The Parents Of Hamilton Avenue School, Just Like Pisani, Warner And Zebora.
Have The Single Family Homeowners Of Greenwich Seen One Hard Hitting Investigative Report Out Of The Ever So Vain Bruce Hunter?
