Under the symantics pretext of investigating the origins of the fifteen dollar, $15.00, minimum wage initiative, I believe you were blatantly AOL, ” absent without leave” as editor. My inference is you scanned, but did not read the ‘Opinion’ peice by Mr.Danehy, you needed filler and said, ” go with it “. I am appalled. As a newly arrived editorial celebrity, I feel you failed me, and a very large impoverished segment of your readership. That’s not good. Here’s a secret, we who inhabit the bottom rung, we actually can read, surprise! And, truth be told, we represent a large , and I’d conjecture vast majority portion of your populist base demographic. You did damage, real damage here. I hate elitism, the religion you evidently now subscribe to as a new member of the bored bourgeoiss You madame have now become part of the problem. Evidently the physician’s ethos of “do no harm”, doesn’t apply to you ? Does it ? I know your rationalizing away now, any personal, ‘that Mari does mean you do own it’, blame or responsibility. But this is yours and Mr. Danehy’s. It belongs to you two, alone. Forgive me.
I feel you and Mr.Danehy, have raised the bar as trailer park sophisticates.
Don’t do this again. Or I’ll contact in person, I’ll make it a quest, every single advertiser, and assist them with finding a superior vehicle for their wears, and if I can work it, as I am clever, at a reduced cost with greater effectivity. I guarranty it.

I believe you were blatantly AOL, ” absent without leave”
I believe what he meant is AWOL, not America On Line!
It’s too bad that Mr Kuznicke, as a “a newly arrived editorial celebrity”, can’t spell correctly, in addition to not using correct acronyms. Editorial celebrity? I don’t think so!
You can read, but you cannot write. I will find you…
Sometimes what (how?) people write speaks more than any comments can.
Tucson Weekly: Do NOT replace Tom with Walter!
I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for readers, I can tell you I don’t have any, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my Tucson Weekly go now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will convince advertisers to boycott you.
