The issue that many of us have is that instead of just reporting the problem and trying to promote a solution, ANN used it as yet another excuse to try and destroy the Sun-N-Fun flyin. *Instead of encouraging all involved to contact Florida and others who might be able to promote a solution, Campbell instead decided to encourage people to stay away from Sun-N-Fun with that as an added threat. If you knew that you were going to get slapped with a five-figure tax bill you otherwise wouldn't owe just for flying to Sun n Fun, would you go? I don't care about Zoom's motives. I don't care that it was Zoom who broke the story. I don't care about his choice of timing. I do care that there's a problem that's real enough to get AOPA and EAA involved. If they find it's groundless, I'll stop worrying, no matter what Zoom has to say about it. A.N.N. and Campbell are like a stopped clock, it is 100% correct twice a day but otherwise good for nothing. Perhaps. Even so, you can't ignore this one just because Zoom reported it because others who actually have credibility are also reporting it. If it was just Zoom, things might well be different. -- Jay Maynard, K5ZC * * * * * * * * *http://www.conmicro.comhttp://jmaynard.livejournal.com* * *http://www.tronguy.net Fairmont, MN (FRM) * * * * * * * * * * * *(Yes, that's me!) AMD Zodiac CH601XLi N55ZC (ordered 17 March, delivery 2 June) You continue to argue that it needed to be reported and we all agree. Nobody is ignoring the issue. What you don't seem to understand or I suspect you just don't give a damn (based on your own motives statement) is that the way the story was presented, it was a direct attempt to do harm to both Sun-N-Fun and indirectly everyone who attends in order to display their products and services. Motives do matter and factual presentation along with credibility also matter. |
