In reference to the recent unintentional violation of the Sunshine Act by the current commissioners, Marv Adams, editor of the Sunday News: “But does any one think this violation compares to the violations that surrounded the sale of Conestoga View? … Common sense is not common online among those who see a conspiracy at every turn … NewsLanc.com, a staunch defender of Shellenberger and Henderson, posted last week: ‘Wake up Lancaster … to the Sunshine Law!'”
WATCHDOG: Adams apparently failed to distinguish between NewsLanc’s news coverage of the event (which some criticized as being rather tepid) and what was said in a published letter. But even the letter to the editor did not suggest that the recent violation was part of a “conspiracy.” Rather it suggested that, if indeed there were violations by the former Commissioner (something that the writer and NewsLanc do not believe was the case), that they were also honest mistakes, and should not have been reported by the monopoly newspapers as though they were the crime of the century.
