Where WERE You?

Where were you AJC? Where were you when WE needed you?

Someone in Buckhead institutes a Cityhood drive and you're all over it. Pen an exposé suggesting that something shady might be going on behind the curtains. Nothing concrete more like some hints that yet another carpetbagger, recently arrived, has come to the land of opportunists for his own benefit rather than that of the community at large. Especially when YOU decide how large a community is under discussion. When we had opaque non-profits making backroom deals and beneficiaries at least as obvious as what you now see in Buckhead, where were you? Where the hell were you? And why are you so lazy? Is it because you think voters are too stupid to understand what the faux cities really are? That if they vote for approval, then according to the very charter they are approving they will never have another meaningful vote? That they will be voting to hand their future over to bureaucrats who without any reason to pay attention to voters? It shouldn't be that hard for your fine investigative journalists to explain. They certainly have enough examples to learn from.

Then there is the whole "police sex scandal" kerfuffle. Not the porn operation in the Dunwoody Police Department. Not the self-investigation factually and actually indistinguishable from a cover-up. Not the whistleblowers. Nadda. With smoke pouring out of every orifice of city hall not one of your investigative reporters thought there might be something there. You know, like fire. Instead you sent at least three (given the article byline) right past Dunwoody city hall all the way out to Lawrenceville. Lawrenceville? Really? You have a raging dumpster fire in your backyard and instead of investigating you act like you're working for Jennifer "Truth Butcher" Boettcher as a PR press printing puff pieces. Are you guys playing on some stage where Dunwoody is a teacher's union and the AJC is in the role of the CDC? Or is this a case of when agendas align then everyone is a team player?

So...where the hell were you, where are you now, where are you going and when are you ever going to serve our community?
