McClatchy-owned Kansas City Star won’t run $25,000 Catholic ad defending Church, bishop
By: Benjamin Hodge (Diary) | November 9th at 12:15 PM |
Catholic League President Bill Donohue – “Ten years ago, there were 1,869 employees at the Star; today there are 840,” he said. “Given these data, turning down $25,000 – in today’s economy – must mean the Star is more concerned about getting Bishop Finn than it is the welfare of its own workers.” The hyper-partisan Kansas City Star supported law-breaking Johnson County Community College leaders | Read More »

$10,000 for 20 Emails? Largest Kansas college JCCC sued by national student press group over open records
By: Benjamin Hodge (Diary) | October 23rd at 10:48 PM |
There should be an Intrade market related to JCCC’s constant legal battles. Well, Converge Magazine lost some credibility these past months. In 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, and again in 2011, Converge named Johnson County Community College a “top-rated community colleges for digital technology.” But how can this be, when JCCC leaders want $10,000 for 20 Emails, and when JCCC is claiming it needs to hire an outside data | Read More »

Ben Hodge in Johnson County Sun: End favoritism in schools – Respect all students, all school employees, and all taxpayers
By: Benjamin Hodge (Diary) | March 23rd at 05:02 PM |
To The Johnson County Sun’s credit, one thing the left-wing paper always does is to offer an opportunity for all candidates for major races to write in their own words why they’re running for office. The Sun asks a few questions, and candidates can write almost anything they want, under a certain number of words. The responses from candidates for Johnson County Community College Board of Trustees were | Read More »

Kansas editorial site ‘Kaw and Border’ defends Benjamin Hodge after false KC Star column
By: Benjamin Hodge (Diary) | March 14th at 02:22 AM |
I’d like to highlight this column by the respected regional editorial news site Kaw and Border, ”Steve’s Rose Colored Glasses Regarding JCCC.” For a brief back-ground. Steve Rose now writes a column for The Kansas City Star. He used to own a paper that his father started, The Johnson County Sun, which is now in its waning days. While Rose is liberal, it’s not his liberalism that’s troublesome, but | Read More »
