Barry's Legend Don't expect the boffo box-office the death of Arizona's favorite straight-tongued son-of-a-Jewish drygoods dealer did last week to spark some renaissance in political plain-speaking. Jeff Smith The Skinny How you can put the "public" back in Amphi School Board public meetings...The Tucson City Attorney's Office pulls a fast one...Star columnist Tom Beal admits the obvious -- his paper's political coverage sucks...And more! Squawk In The Park Just about everybody you ask about the Arizona Department of Economic Security's plan to move into a yet-to-be-constructed warehouse on the edge of the historic Armory Park neighborhood thinks the idea stinks.
