9/22 UpDate: Morning Call/Bill White's skittish response ...
Morning Call "newspaper" "reporter" Jarrett Renshaw has been present at all 6 of the Allentown City Council meetings I've spoken at since June 16.
But curiously, "Renshaw" and The Morning Call "newspaper" haven't published one word about any of my 6 emotionally charged appearances at City Council, and that's surprising.
Recently, my twice-monthly speaking engagements at City Council have been causing quite a newsworthy ruckus. On 9/15, I was ejected by the Allentown Police and on 9/9 I was physically assaulted by Council President Mike D'Amore. As a result, WFMZ-TV 69 News has been attending every City Council meeting too, because of me.
So far, 69 News has broadcast three (3), excellent and courageous reports informing Allentonians about what's going on, and 69 News has also done a ton of background research on the "story behind the story" here involving Lehigh County DA Jim Martin.
FYI: "Renshaw" always sits in the back of the room at City Council ... right next to Democratic Committee "man" from Trexlertown, Chris Casey, the blogger who posted 50% of the cruel and libelous comments cyber-terrorizing the Villa family at "W" Mike Donovan's blog all of March 2010, w/ Donovan's encouragement.
Yep.
The "press," and the perpetrator sit side by side, proudly and publicly allied at City Council meetings, a
s the 7 scofflaw City Council cockroaches hissingly welcome them both, warmly, every meeting, as they give me icy dagger stares and summon the Police. Go figure. Only in Allentown.
Readers, it will be interesting to see if Muhlenberg College professor and helpful blog post "caller-outer" Jeff Pooley PhD will "call out" this blog post of ours on "69 News v. The Morning Call" and the "W" Mike Donovan "Free Speech" issue, since we are so deftly exposing corruption and collusion involving Allentown's only "newspaper" and our local blogosphere. Doctor/Blogger Pooley teaches courses on "media and communication" at Muhlenberg College (for now) and he should have a keen interest in all this. Truth is, Professor Pooley should be outspokenly outraged over all this.
BTW, we believe Dr. Pooley will have the "astute analysis" department all to hisself on this one as we don't anticipate him being "scooped" by anyone else in our local blogosphere. Just sayin'.
For admirably detail-oriented wonks interested in researching the truth (but too pissy pants pusillanimous to report on it), this isn't the first time The Morning Call "newspaper" has purposefully concealed the truth about "W" Mike Donovan while 69 News courageously told the truth about "W" Mike.
And for some disturbing insight into the staggering hypocrisy and collusion in our local blogosphere, read our right sidebar item entitled, "Take The Pooley Pledge," which Dr. Pooley (after pledging to take it) reneged on taking hisself.

Pooley is a wonk.
City Council needs to find political Viagra to overcome Villa.
They have been rendered totally impotent.
Has anyone ever told the Allentown City Council that when they are in a hole DON'T DIG. It appears that they seem to have their own interest at the forefront rather then the city residence.
What a shell game!
I was really startled to see Team Donovan/Casey cyber gang member "Bill Stauffer" addressing City Council and giving out his home address in a You Tube video last week where he was whining about some potted plants that disappeared from his front porch. Stauffer was actually taunting the city's "criminals" (probably teenagers) while announcing his home address! They don't call them "Duped Dunces" for nothing!
:) we're not exactly talkin' "Brain Trust" w/ Team Donovan/Casey and their duped dunce allies.
I find it curious that none of Bill Villa's City Council speeches have been posted at You Tube...I bet they've all been "flip-cammed" by Team Donovan|Casey. And here I thought our local bloggers were all for "transparency in government" (?)
Also, if Bill were "nutz" as they all bray, wouldn't those videos provide compelling proof of that?

You sure have Jeff Pooley's number.
The Morning Call is worthless. Their news stories are about nameless sex offenders and acts of idiocracy - "Nearly naked student floods basement".
The real local news will never appear since it might involve one of their advertising accounts.
You will never see anything of an investigative nature (negative) about the local hospitals, for example. So you can understand why gadfly health reporters were the first to go.
Can you imagine someone found dead with some relationship to one of these hospitals and nothing ever is stated about in the paper? True and alarming!
Renshaw will only do the "safe investigative" reports. I am sure his bosses remind him daily "he still has a job" in this economy.
As far as his buddy Casey is concerned, he is a legend in his own mind. Very sophomoric style of writing that is inherently self indulgent and of course self serving.
8:43, Touché.
"jdg," you are correct (as usual) and where in the heck have you been (welcome back).
10:14, exceptionally well said. In addition to de-throning crooked and incompetent DA Jim Martin and all 7 City Council members, we are also in the process of triggering (not a threat) a comprehensive housecleaning of upper and middle management at The Morning Call "newspaper," thanks for supporting LVS w/ your excellent and astute comment.

To Whom It May Concern
"RESPONSE" by NUTTY & PUSILLANIMOUS PROFESSOR JEFF POOLEY
* Yesterday, Professor Pooley spitefully (and retroactively) deleted several on-topic comments of mine that had been up at his blog for days (deceitfully citing "off topic" and "personal insults")
* To distance his "readers" from those BV-Muzzled posts, he then frantically put up six (6) new blog posts, his usual output for a month (and probably while grading papers)
* One of them called out "a WFMZ exclusive" having to do w/ "a matter from last week's City Council meeting" (no not THAT matter, silly, another matter)
* Pooley (compulsively checking his blog every 2 minutes) keeps deleting this comment of mine that's, again, on-topic, so you don't see it ...
--------
Here's another 69 News exclusive and it's curious that it's exclusive. Especially curious is that a media & communications professor (for now) such as yourself, Dr. Pooley, isn't screamingly outraged by all this ...
--------
Oh well, we've made our point, again.
Bill White's
equally skittish response ... ;D
Dear Tribune Company:
Typically, when we post astute comments at your online "Forum" w/ links back here to a relevant LVS article, our SiteMeter(R) usually reveals to us an immediate doubling of visits to our blog (which tells us we have about the same circulation as you).
However, whenever we post comments at a Morning Call "Forum" article "written" by Bill White, like we have today ...
... we get nuthin'. Zilch. No up-ticks on our SiteMeter(R) at all, which tells us nobody's reading Bill White.
Just sayin' (FYI).
Synergy ...

I love that story ...
The Morning Call shouldn't just dismiss this story. Why so dismissive? It comes off like they don't want the truth to get out (they don't want Bill to have his say, also they're lazy) so they just dismiss it before anyone has to deal w/ the truth. I can see where just continuing to tell the truth will eventually wear everyone down.
8:10, thanks, sounds like a plan. You can count on me to not allow the powers that be (for now) around here to dismiss the truth.
Readers, here's proof once again of Allentown City Clerk Mike Hanlon ($74K per annum) sleeping on the job and screwing the taxpayers again ...
where's the City Council minutes for Sept 1 & 15, Mike?
;D
Last time Bill called out (i.e., woke up) Mike Hanlon, the "backlogged" minutes for like a half-dozen City Council meetings appeared magically online within hours. Let's time Mike Hanlon and see how long it takes him this time, and Bill says he doubts Mike can do it w/ in 3 minutes ... ;D
Hey Mike Hanlon, consider switching teams ...

It's 1:54pm and I notice Mike Hanlon has gotten the Sept 1 minutes up, well done Mike ...
No Sept 15 minutes up yet though once as of 1:58pm ...
Obviously it takes Mike Hanlon a while to get things up ;D
It's 2:19pm and Mike Hanlon still can't get the 9/15 minutes up ...
Mike Hanlon's daughter knew Sheena.
She danced at the same school Sheena danced at.
If there was one City Council "inner sanctum" member who should be breaking ranks and loudly denouncing "W" Mike Donovan, it's Mike Hanlon.
But Mike Hanlon is obviously a total gutless and pusillanimous wonder like the rest of City Council.
5:04pm and still no 9/15 minutes up yet once, and it ain't gonna happen today because Mike was likely out the door 4 minutes ago ...
Well, Mike Hanlon DID get his 9/1 minutes up today (once), don't want to overdo it ... ;D

"Whatever you think of the newspapers you read and the news shows you watch, they have a few things in common. They usually are staffed by people who have been trained to understand the importance of accuracy and fairness ... This doesn't guarantee that they'll get everything right or that no one ever will allow personal biases to influence what you read and hear. It does greatly improve the odds that what you're seeing approximates the truth and wasn't written with an obvious ax to grind." -Bill White, The Morning Call "newspaper"

BTW, the City Solicitor has denied my "Right To Know" request regarding the rulings and opinions rendered by the City Solicitor that enabled City Council President (for now) Mike D'Amore and the cops to muzzle & eject me from City Council on 9/15.
Obviously, the City Solicitor has something to hide, and he can run, but he can't hide for long.
Stay tuned ... for another resounding Villas Victory.
On a happier note, we're greatly looking forward to OctoberFest at the 19th Street "Theatre District" this Saturday and running in to and speaking w/ all the luminaries from in and around the City Of Allentown.

The above newspaper story states that the Killer's "supporters" at sentencing told the judge the Killer had stopped drinking after the accident and was seeking help for his alcohol problem. Was that here in Allentown or on vacation at the island resort he went to when he jumped bail before his sentencing?

Excellent question, 5:05, and sorry your comment got caught in our spam catcher for some reason (dunno why that happens sometimes).
The AWOL Belize Vacation that Sheena's killer was allowed to take, while on bail for homicide, was highly unusual ... but ... was of no interest whatsoever to The Morning Call "newspaper." They refused to report on it. More on this in an upcoming post on the long list of things the "newspaper" looked the other way on, regarding Sheena's case.
I find it hard to believe that Sheena's killer didn't have a few (or a lot of) drinks while sunning himself in Belize, 5 months after killing Sheena, but I hope for society's sake, and his, that he has since addressed his admitted problems w/ alcohol.
Otherwise, after he gets out, he'll likely end up back in prison, and next time, maybe it'll be for the 12.5 to 25 years he should have been sentenced to serve for committing third degree murder against Sheena.
Nice post. I like the way you start and then conclude your thoughts. Thanks for this information. I really appreciate your work, keep it up.
Belize Vacation
