DEAD TREE COLUMNIST YAEL ABOUHALKAH OUT OF TOUCH AND FORGETS KANSAS CITY'S HOMICIDE RATE FOR THE NEW YEAR!!!
Here's another reason to hate The Kansas City Star.
Yael T. Abouhalkah is pretty much the columnist of record for the so-called paper of record . . . More than anyone else his opinions drive coverage for the daily bird cage liner.
Now check out his predictions for 2012:
Six burning questions for the KC area in 2012
Go ahead and read . . . I'll wait.
MORE THAN A FEW TKC READERS HAVE NOTICED . . . THERE'S NOT ONE WORD ABOUT KANSAS CITY'S MURDER RATE IN THIS COLUMN ATTEMPTING TO DEFINE NEXT YEAR!!! SHAME ON THE KANSAS CITY STAR EDITORIAL BOARD FOR NOT MAKING THE RATE OF MURDER IN THIS TOWN A PRIORITY!!!
More . . .
THIS GLARING OMISSION DEMONSTRATES THAT THE STAR IS OUT OUT OF TOUCH AND THEIR WRITERS DON'T REALLY CARE ABOUT THE URBAN CORE!!!
Just a glimpse of what you guys caught that I didn't because I gave up on Dead Tree media long ago . . .
You're rarely right Toney but Yael does suck.
ReplyDeleteSo, Tony, what exactly is this "murder rate" of which you speak? The 114 number (might be higher by the time I finish this post) is not the murder rate. Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteYael has been covering the same cith hall crap and the same city hall crappees for so long, his only interest is in insider baseball stuff like pensions and committees.
ReplyDeleteThe Pitch just listed all the names of the current 114 homicide victims in their current edition and it's striking when you see all those names in one place.
And the lead story on the Star's front page this morning? Your bud Louie Wright's retirement.
The Star thinks the urban core is the P&L District and it won't be long before they're right.

That is scary.
What Yael wrote is an burning example of why I stop taking the Star a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteThe Star has no clue about whats going on other than their own personal issues the ones they wish to back and cover.
When you see how The Star covers 2012, murder-wise, get ready to eat those words, Slanderella.
ReplyDeleteI hope Coach Comstock is there to speak and silence the haters.
ReplyDeleteYael is a first class liar who only does a story against a enemy ,also he wants City control and Forte has promised him that so 300 people could be killed and he would protect his bitch Forte.
ReplyDeleteForte should learn from the Funk how fast Yael will turn on him . Wake p Forte and do your job
ReplyDeleteAgreed.
ReplyDeleteLara Moritz talked about Dee Dee living a Transgendered "Lifestyle" tonight.
ReplyDeleteThat woman is a stupid as a bag of hammers.
Why should Yael care? Nobody on the East Side does, except the usual suspects living the hood who make money from it.
ReplyDeletethe only thing dumber than your comments are your commenters
ReplyDeleteMurder and Violence are just part of KC Culture.
ReplyDeleteThe election of Mayor James, who the Star supported, caused the editorial board at the Star to relapse into the delusion that they are relevant in shaping public policy and opinion in this town when in fact, they are just a mirror, capable only of reflecting those things that happen to appear in front of them.
