This thrills me: In Gallup, a mayor and a local newspaperman get into a fist fight over stories that indicate the mayor was involved in a 1948 gang rape. Security cam footage, descriptive interviews, a dark back story about politics and investigative journalism. OK, this does make me miss New Mexico just a little.
I know you want to read more. Here’s the report from KRQE.
Howdy. Dave Maass here.
Gallup’s mayor must be a pretty grizzled dude. To be able to get it up in 1948 and still able to get his dukes up in 2010. He should be a new character on True Blood, the dude can bring terror forever.
Talk about fighting unfair.
Sophie Martin uses Duke City Fix to purposely damage reputations, she deletes comments contrary to her opinions and then blocks those users. She practices the worst kind of censorship. She uses ning.com & other unethical techniques to artificially boost hit rates to fool google to keep maliciously worded links on top of a google search against targeted persons. She is anything but fair and objective. Please be aware of her hurtful methods and if you know her please tell her to stop.
She’s lucky she didn’t write something bad about the mayor of Gallup because you know what would have happened.
The mayor is busted. He must have been absent from the class the day they taught Politics 101: Never throw punches at a reporter especially as a result of a particular piece of news that you don’t want to hear. “No comment” usually works wonders to keep reasonable doubt in anyone’s mind. By throwing a punch at the reporter removed all doubt in my mind the mayor is guilty.
