Well, Ed Pierce (Laconia Citizen editor) helps prove where the MSM stands politically

Ed Pierce The Citizen in LaconiaWhat a snob – typical Leftist MSMer who believes that HE has free speech but no one else does?  Once again, we see little tolerance in the news bureau (who 90-95% vote and give campaign donations strictly to Democrats) and reinforcement that the MSM is slanted in both its outlook and actions. “Mr.” Pierce of The Citizen was some unhappy when he read an email from Flanagan (similar to what Jim Lawrence put out) taking Annie Kuster to the woodshed over her “sit-in / Publicity stunt (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Please remove our newspaper from your mailing list immediately.  If this is how Mr. Flanagan is launching his campaign, I seriously recommend some self-reflection. I believe the issue deserves an up and down vote and can’t fault Rep. Kuster for standing up (or sitting down) for something she believes in. Sort of like not giving an up and down vote to the Supreme Court nominee…burying your head in the sand and hoping it will go away, right?

So, a Democrat (and rather way-Left leaning Progressive) can do and speak her mind but a Republican (as much as a centrist squish as Flanagan is when you review his stances and votes), in Pierce’s eyes, can’t?  So much for that First Amendment schtick, eh Pierce?  Even as it is the sole reason your business exists?

And you wonder why the Laconia Daily Sun is handing you your butt in a sling?  I think that “self-reflection” is a phrase you ought to be reconsidering right about now.  Another word, given your bias, perhap consideration of another word might be in order:

Resign
