    Wow. This was the first Fox article I’ve read in several years. It’s fascinating, but in a really abrasive way somehow. It just feels frustrated.

    The article has almost no information at all. It shares the perspectives of a few upset residents, which are great to include, but almost no direct statements about what the mayor actually did. Why did the mayor fly to Las Vegas? What about that trip makes it theft? I certainly want to question the trip… but the article just doesn’t give that info. Similarly, how did the mayor steal from the cancer fund? It sure sounds bad, but we’re only given that statement from the perspective of one upset resident who has cancer. The perspective sure is valid but I can’t make my own evaluation based on the info given. It just feels like I’m not meant to think about what I’m reading. It’s very strange.

    Is this normal for articles written by Fox?
