— In TV shows and films today, journalists are bad news – Don Aucoin (COMMENT: I should write a book about those who have slandered me the most since 2000 for what I have done as your GOPUSA Illinois Editor. Better yet, I should sue them.)
https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/10/21/arts/how-tv-shows-films-portray-journalists-today-is-bad-news/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To many conservatives, the mainstream media are essentially an arm of the Democratic Party. To many progressives (who see Fox News as an arm of the GOP), reporters adhere to a misguided notion of “objectivity” whose on-the-one-hand-on-the-other-hand approach often obscures the truth about issues. So the news business is leaking support from both sides of the vessel, as it were. There’s no way to know how much any of that factors into the findings of a new Gallup poll on media credibility, but the numbers are dispiriting for anyone who understands that journalism is vital to the functioning of democracy. Gallup found that Americans’ trust in the media to “report the news fully, accurately and fairly” has dropped to 36 percent, the second-lowest on record. Breaking down that number, only 7 percent of respondents told Gallup they have “a great deal” of faith in the reporting done by newspapers, TV, and radio. The other 29 percent said they have “a fair amount” of trust.)

Further, I knew that my Democrat superiors would advise me to do things that I would not do, namely, become a Democrat, help them get rid of their employees who shared my demographics, promote the Democrat Party platform, promote political affiliation discrimination, promote reverse discrimination, promote age discrimination, etc. Instead, I took my own advice and earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Justice Michael Burke announced his candidacy for the Illinois Supreme Court’s vacant 3rd District seat this morning, accompanied by DuPage County public officials Former Supreme Court Justice Bob Thomas, DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick, and DuPage County State’s Attorney Bob Berlin endorsing his candidacy. The 50+ attendees at the DuPage County Fairgrounds in Wheaton included Janice Anderson, Louis Aranda, Joe Birkett, Niki Conforti, Dan Cronin, John Dabrowski, Pete DiCianni, Tim Elloitt, Daniel Guerin, Gwen Henry, Paul Hinds, Bill Hogan, Chris Kachiroubas, James McCluskey, John Millner, Kenneth Popejoy, Nicole Prater, Donald Puchalski, Dennis Reboletti, Mike Reidy, Kenton Skarin, Rick Veenstra, Ann Celine Walsh, Deanna Wilkins, and Jim Zay. The campaign website is at https://www.justicemikeburke.com/ Endorsements are at https://www.justicemikeburke.com/endorsements – Dave Diersen
http://gopillinopis.com
(FROM THE BURKE CAMPAIGN: Justice Burke released the following statement accompanying his announcement: “It is an immense honor to be able to run for the highest court in our state. I’ve been honored to serve in the criminal justice system for my whole life, as a prosecutor and as a judge at all levels of our state’s judiciary. I am humbly asking for your vote to continue my service to our state.” Justice Burke was accompanied by other public officials who have endorsed his candidacy. Quotes from leaders who stood with Justice Burke today: Former Supreme Court Justice Bob Thomas: “The Supreme Court was wise to appoint Justice Burke to Illinois’s highest court, and voters will be wise to elect him in the 3rd District. Justice Burke has represented the seat I once held with honor and integrity, and his commitment to justice is total. I’m proud to endorse his candidacy for the 3rd District seat.” DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick: “Justice Burke has spent his entire career in public service, and his record on law enforcement is impeccable. He has consistently sought justice as a prosecutor and a judge, and he will continue to do so on the Supreme Court.” DuPage County State’s Attorney Bob Berlin: “When electing a Supreme Court Justice, it’s important that we have someone who is independent, honest and committed to justice. No one embodies that more than Justice Michael Burke. He will represent the 3rd District with all of those values every day as our Supreme Court Justice.)

— Justice Michael Burke announces Ill. Sup. Ct. run – Rick Koshko
https://1430wcmy.com/2021/09/27/justice-michael-burke-announces-ill-sup-ct-run/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Supreme Court Justice Michael Burke is running for election as a Republican. He’s serving from the current 2nd Judicial District. A new district map will be in effect when the next term starts, so if he’s elected Burke will be in the newly drawn 3rd District that covers LaSalle, Bureau, and Grundy counties plus DuPage County where he’s from. Burke joined the state’s highest court last year when Robert Thomas retired. He announced his candidacy today, just three days after Gov. Pritzker signed the bill into law to create the new legislative and judicial districts that’ll be in effect for the 2022 elections. It’s the first redraw of the Illinois judicial districts in nearly 60 years. According to the 72-year old Burke’s campaign web site, people endorsing him for election include St. Sen. Sue Rezin, Illinois House members Tom Demmer and David Welter, former LaSalle County Sheriff Tom Templeton, Grundy County State’s Attorney Jason Helland, and former Illinois Attorney General Jim Ryan. If he wins the 2022 elections, Burke would have a ten-year term toward the end of which he would be up for a retention vote if he wants to keep the job. The ballots in 2032 would ask voters if he should remain a Supreme Court Justice. But the 2022 ballots will ask voters to choose from Burke and other candidates if others run. Justice Michael Burke is not related to Ill. Sup. Ct. Chief Justice Anne Burke.)

— Employment: Search for better job proves fruitless – Chris Breach (COMMENT: All my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes promote age discrimination.)
https://www.daily-journal.com/business/employment-search-for-better-job-proves-fruitless/article_3df77900-1b11-11ec-8a3b-cf363be21e2a.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So, he says, the fruitless hunt for a job is not due to a lack of a resume. Rather, he believes, it’s his age. “The biggest point I’m trying to make is I’m an older worker,” he said. “… I’ve applied [at companies] a number of times. I counted them up the other day — it was 25 different places I’ve applied, and some of them multiple times. I can’t get an interview. “It’s the only thing I could come up with,” he said of his age. “It’s the only thing I could figure.” Kunsch said he thinks his age eliminated him immediately for consideration for many of those positions. While an employer can’t legally inquire about an applicant’s age, some job search websites have required drop-down menu items that might give away an applicant’s age, including year of graduation, etc. “That’s age discrimination,” he said. “There’s got to be a way of governing that. I don’t know.” He’s not alone in feeling like his age has served as a deterrent for potential employers.)
