Barbara was a State Central Committeewoman for the 6th Congressional District in the 1980’s. Concurrently she was on the Board of DuPage Civic Center Authority and the DuPage County Domestic Violence Task Force. She always credited Chairman James ‘Pate’ Philip for including her as the only woman in the proverbial “all male smoke filled” meetings. Just as the Republican National Conventions were the highlight of her political career, her satisfaction in mentoring a person who wanted to become involved in the political system was her greatest Fulfillment. Barbara was a strong believer in inclusiveness and loyalty. Barbara was a member of the Inland Western Retail Sales Trust Board. She was a founding member of “The Friends of Family Shelter.” And a former co-owner of the “Daffy Down Dilly” gift shop.

During the 1840s and 1850s, all my ancestors immigrated to northeast Illinois from what is now Germany. Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used that against me. In my defense, I stress that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans during WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans during WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans during WWII if he had not been 4-F. Further, according to http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece.

DAILY JOURNAL
— Don’t blame conservatives, business for your personal failures – Mike Pflum, Martinsville (DIERSEN: What do your critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes blame your personal failures on? Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes blame me and blame me only for my personal failures. They hint/imply/argue/shout that if they were me, they would still be the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, the Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster, an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, a GAO employee, etc.)
http://www.dailyjournal.net/2019/03/05/letter_dont_blame_conservatives_business_for_your_personal_failures/
(FROM THE LETTER: When our youth increasingly quit school, take drugs, commit a felony or produce a child, often prior to their first job interview, they trigger a death spiral from which most never recover. That, Mr. Smith, is why so many Americans are living a nightmare of declining quality of life. That is why the speed of an increasingly technical world frequently leaves them behind. I am always saddened when I see our youth willingly saddle themselves with these crippling obstructions to personal success. However that pales in comparison to the anger I feel for those who enable personal failure by assigning blame everywhere other than where it belongs. Life is the sum total of the individual choices we make — good and bad. Unfortunately, that means the real world is often a cruel and unfair place that is hardly ever welcoming of the unprepared. It does not mean it is the fault of conservatives or big business.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— How can www.gopillinois.com get a better NewsGuard rating? Please consider NewsGuard’s rating criteria at https://www.newsguardtech.com/ratings/rating-process-criteria/ or below and email me at diersen@aol.com or phone me at 630-653-0462 with your suggestions. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
(FROM THE POSTING: RATING CRITERIA  Here are the nine criteria that NewsGuard uses to assess websites. Each criterion is worth a certain number of points out of 100, as indicated below. A site with a score of 60 points or higher receives a green rating. A site with a score lower than 60 points receives a red rating. In every case, the NewsGuard Nutrition Labels that are provided for each site (by clicking on the rating) spell out the site’s adherence to each of the nine criteria that yielded that source’s particular rating.

 

The criteria below are listed in order of their importance in determining a red rating. For example, failure to adhere to the first criteria—publishing false content—is more influential in determining a red rating than failure to reveal information about content creators.

 

Credibility

— Doesn’t repeatedly publish false content: In the last three years the site has not produced multiple stories that have been found—either by journalists at NewsGuard or elsewhere—to be clearly false, and which have not been quickly and prominently corrected. (22 Points. A label with a score lower than 60 points gets a red rating.)

 

— Gathers and presents information responsibly: Content on the site is created by reporters, writers, videographers, researchers, or other information providers who generally seek to be accurate and fair in gathering, reporting, and interpreting information, even if they approach their work from a strong point of view. They do this by referencing multiple sources, preferably those that present direct, first-hand information on a subject or event. (18 Points)

 

— Regularly corrects or clarifies errors: The site makes clear how to contact those in charge and has effective practices for publishing clarifications and corrections. (12.5 Points)

 

— Handles the difference between news and opinion responsibly: Content providers who convey the impression that they report news or a mix of news and opinion distinguish opinion from news reporting, and when reporting news, they do not regularly or egregiously misstate, distort, or cherry pick facts, or egregiously cherry pick stories, to advance opinions. Content providers whose clearly expressed purpose is to advance a particular point of view do not regularly and egregiously misstate or distort facts to make their case. (12.5 Points)

 

— Avoids deceptive headlines: The site generally does not publish headlines that include false information, significantly sensationalize, or otherwise do not reflect what is actually in the story. (10 Points)

 

Transparency


— Website discloses ownership and financing: The site discloses its ownership and/or financing, as well as any notable ideological or political positions held by those with a significant financial interest in the site, in a user-friendly manner. (7.5 Points)

 

— Clearly labels advertising: The site makes clear which content is paid for and which is not. (7.5 Points)

 

— Reveals who’s in charge: Information about those in charge of the content is made accessible on the site. (5 Points)

 

— The site provides the names of content creators, along with either contact information or biographical information: Information about those producing the content is made accessible on the site. (5 Points))

I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and became a licensed CPA in 1981.

While I worked for GAO 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $96,403-$125,325, I increasingly worked as a referencer, that is, as a fact checker. That work required assuring the accuracy and support for each and every word, number, table, graph, chart, conclusion, opinion, and recommendation in GAO reports. I worked for IRS 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $81,071-$91,880. My other fact checking qualifications include my becoming a Forensic Accountant in 1997, a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, a licensed CPA in 1981, a Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, and a CPA in 1979.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “The reason I tell you all of this is because my activities here in Chicago taught me a very important lesson that I have never forgotten,” he said. “And that is that whether it is the struggle against corporate greed or against racism, sexism, homophobia, environmental devastation or war and militarism, real change never places from top on down. It always takes place from the bottom on up.“ He spoke about wealth gaps and other inequalities between black and white Americans as well. “Today, the infant mortality rate in black communities is more than double the rate for white communities,” he said, “and the death rates from cancer and almost every disease is far higher for blacks.”)

GO LOCAL PROV
— OUTSTANDING: Congress Gears Up Legislative Efforts to Combat Age Discrimination – Herb Weiss (DIERSEN: All my critics/opponents, all their operatives, and all their dupes promote age discrimination a) because they want to get rid of those who are older than they are and/or b) because they want to curry favor with those who promote age discrimination.)
https://www.golocalprov.com/news/weiss-congress-gears-up-legislative-efforts-to-combat-age-discrimination
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With the 116th Congress beginning on January 3, 2019, Congress moves quickly to protect older Americans from rampant age discrimination. It is a key reason why Americans, age 40 and over, are fired or offered buyouts (with younger persons being hired in their place) and why they can’t find work after a period of unemployment and struggle to return to the workforce.  On Valentine’s Day, U.S. Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pa.), Ranking Member of the Special Committee on Aging, with cosponsors Sens. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Susan Collins (R-Maine) re-introduced S 485, The Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act (POWADA). The bill was referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions. Fixing a Supreme Court Ruling Over a decade ago, a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Gross v. FBL Financial Services weakened the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) by imposing a significantly higher burden of proof on older workers alleging age discrimination than is required of workers alleging other forms of workplace discrimination. As a result, workers that allege age discrimination must meet an undue legal burden not faced by workers alleging discrimination based on race, sex, national origin or religion. This sent a clear signal to employers: some age discrimination is perfectly fine. Enacting the bipartisan POWADA bill would restore the pre-Gross standard, recognizing once again the legitimacy of so-called “mixed-motive” claims in which discrimination is a, if not the deciding, factor. It would also reaffirm that workers may use any type of admissible evidence to prove their claims.)

 

PC MAGAZINE
— How to Spot Fake News Online Not sure which sources to trust when you’re online? These browser plug-ins and online tools can help you figure out how to detect fake news sites. – Lance Whitney (DIERSEN: What do you suggest that I to improve the ranking that NewsGuard gives www.gopillinois.com ?)

https://www.pcmag.com/feature/366512/how-to-spot-fake-news-online
(FROM THE ARTICLE: NewsGuard relies on a team of journalists who analyze more than 2,000 news and information sites in the United States. Each site is evaluated and ranked on nine different criteria: Does the site repeatedly publish false content? Does it gather and present information responsibly? Does it regularly correct or clarify errors? Does it handle the difference between news and opinion responsibly? Does it avoid deceptive headlines? Does it disclose ownership and financing about itself? Does it clearly label advertising? Does it reveal who’s in charge, including possible conflicts of interest? Does it provide information about content creators? Each criteria is given a certain weighting, or number of points, to determine the site’s overall rating. A site earns a green rating if it meets basic standards of accuracy and accountability. A site is dinged with a red rating if it fails to meet those minimum standards.)

They shout that the federal government grossly overpaid me and that my federal retirement benefits are much too generous. In my defense, my ancestors always lived in northeast Illinois, they all were Republicans, and they never had enough money to discriminate against anyone even if they wanted to.)

I am qualified to run for the following political offices: a) Wheaton City Councilman West District, b) Wheaton City Councilman At Large, c) Wheaton Mayor, d) Milton Township Trustee, e) Milton Township Supervisor, f) DuPage County Board District 4, g) DuPage County Board Chairman, h) State Representative 42nd District, i) State Senator 21th District, j) Illinois Governor, k) U.S. Representative 6th District, l) U.S. Senator Illinois, and m) U.S. President.)

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/28/opinion/ivanka-trump-social-mobility.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The key observation, based on a growing body of research, is that when it comes to upward social mobility, the U.S. is truly exceptional — that is, it performs exceptionally badly. Americans whose parents have low incomes are more likely to have low incomes themselves, and less likely to make it into the middle or upper class, than their counterparts in other advanced countries. And those who are born affluent are, correspondingly, more likely to keep their status.)

— Reparations and Black Americans’ Attitudes About Race – FRANK NEWPORT (DIERSEN: How much in reparations do your critics/opponents hint/imply/argue/shout that you should pay and why? My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I should pay lots of reparations because I am White, male, old (born in 1948), Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), conservative, Republican, non-poor, draft avoider, I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, that is, I held jobs that minorities and females should have had instead of me, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. In my defense, my ancestors have always lived in northeast Illinois and they discriminated against no one. In my defense, in 1997, I succumbed to my Democrat superiors and took their early retirement “offer” so that they could my job and my preferred corner office to a Democrat minority.)
https://news.gallup.com/opinion/polling-matters/247178/reparations-black-americans-attitudes-race.aspx
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One key finding: Only 18% of blacks are satisfied with the way blacks are treated in this country today, compared with 51% of whites who say they are satisfied with the way blacks are treated. Well over half of blacks believe that blacks are treated less favorably than whites in dealing with the police, in stores and malls, and on the job. About half of blacks say blacks are treated less favorably in neighborhood shops, in restaurants and in getting healthcare. More than one in five black Americans say that within the last 30 days they were treated unfairly in stores, in restaurants or by the police. Slightly fewer, but still substantial numbers, say that they have been treated unfairly at work or in receiving healthcare. A slight majority of blacks are pessimistic about the future, saying that relations between blacks and whites will always be a problem in this country. Black Americans also clearly believe that government actions should be taken to help bring about change. Over seven in 10 blacks favor affirmative action programs for racial minorities in this country, and a majority of 57% of whites agree. Previous Gallup research has shown that about two-thirds of black Americans believe the U.S. government should play a major role in trying to improve the social and economic position of blacks and other minority groups in this country. Over seven in 10 blacks believe that new civil rights laws are needed in this country to reduce discrimination against blacks. What about reparations per se? Several polls in recent years have shown majority black support for the concept. A YouGov online survey in 2014 showed roughly six in 10 black Americans said that the U.S. government should offer cash payments and education and job training programs to the descendants of slaves. A Kaiser Family Foundation/CNN survey from 2015 found that 52% of blacks said that “as a way to make up for the harm caused by slavery” the government should “make cash payments to Black Americans who are descendants of slaves” (8% of whites agreed). A Marist poll from 2016 showed that 58% of blacks supported the idea for reparations for African-American descendants of slaves. Overall, blacks in the U.S. have continuing concerns about discrimination and structural impediments to their success, and most believe that the government must step in and do more to help this situation. The concept of reparations per se is broad, and the exact level of black support for the idea depends on how it is defined. But we know that at least a majority of blacks appear from past polling to be in favor — not surprising given the general context of black support for the government actively addressing race inequalities in the U.S. today.)

https://abc7chicago.com/politics/mayoral-race-shows-change-has-arrived-political-expert-says/5160143/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And perhaps no community more than Chicago’s LGBTQ members celebrated as intensely with Tuesday’s outcome – the advent of a pair of African American women now vying for Chicago’s top spot. It brought a smile to the face of Rick Garcia. He started Equality Illinois a generation ago, seeking simple non-discrimination laws to protect the LGBTQ community. “All of the hard work, of many people over decades, came to fruition because both of these candidates,” he said. “One is lesbian and one has a strong record on LGBTQ rights. We haven’t seen that in a long time. There’s always somebody there who isn’t just with the community.” That undeniable political muscle was on display especially as you look the vote totals in wards 44, 46, 48 and 49 where the LGBTQ community is well represented, and had higher than average voter turnout — signaling again that they — with the African-American community — ought to have outsized roles in determining whether Toni Preckwinkle or Lori Lightfoot becomes the next mayor of Chicago.)

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Here’s how much more south suburban homeowners pay in taxes Property tax rates in the south suburbs are about twice what they are in western and north suburbs. We looked at comparably priced homes in several locations to see what that means in the dollars a homeowner pays. – DENNIS RODKIN (DIERSEN: How much value has your home lost? How much have your real estate taxes gone up?)
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/residential-real-estate/heres-how-much-more-south-suburban-homeowners-pay-taxes
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A home in south suburban Flossmoor sold last week for about 50 percent below what the sellers paid for it in 2006, a common enough story in Chicago’s slowly rising real estate market. Here’s what’s not so common: In that same stretch of 12 years, the home’s property tax bill went up by 40 percent. The dollar amounts are different—the sale price of the house on Braeburn Avenue went down by more than $500,000, while the taxes went up $6,700 between the 2006 and 2018 tax bills. But the criss-cross paths of prices and property taxes, with one going down while the other goes up, is a painful truth of the Chicago housing market that is most acute in the south Cook County suburbs. Tax rates in south Cook County municipalities are, on average, about twice those in western and northern towns. “The taxes are outrageous,” said Felicia Johnson, the D’aprile Properties agent who represented the buyers. “They’re absolutely the reason it was on the market so long. It’s a beautiful house. It’s gorgeous.”)

— Walmart is getting rid of greeters, worrying those with disabilities – AP (DIERSEN: What has caused you to worry? During the 1980s and 1990s, the Democrats who ran GAO got rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they had not promoted to GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. That worried me because my Democrat GAO superiors a) had forced me to take a $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars, that is, a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10, to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, b) had kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 (1986-1988) of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, c) had gotten rid of my mentor in 1987 who had hired me, gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986, d) had not promoted me beyond GS-13, e) had always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and f) had given me unfair performance expectations and appraisals. They forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/employees-pushed-to-keep-learning-new-skills-as-workplace-evolves-11551279600
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lifelong learning has become a mantra in American corporations as employees face pressure to stay relevant in a rapidly evolving workplace. Employers, politicians and educators are hammering the message that people need to continuously upgrade their skills because of advancing technologies. Even companies that invest in employee training expect workers to figure out their future career path, and some want workers to retrain themselves on their own time and dime. “We’ve put huge emphasis on shifting responsibility to the individual,” said Tim Munden, who oversees employee training as chief learning officer at Unilever PLC, which provides employees with resources such as online classes. “There’s no way on earth we can send people to enough training courses to make the shift we need to adapt to the world around us. People need to take that on themselves.” Employers say the self-starter model offers better odds that people will take initiative to keep themselves employable by absorbing skills they’re actually interested in. But self-directed learning can be a heavy lift for workers in an economy where the signals are difficult even for experts to parse, said Andy Van Kleunen, chief executive of the National Skills Coalition.)

CBS ALBANY
— You Paid For It: Pricey cars gathering dust – Greg Floyd
https://cbs6albany.com/news/local/you-paid-for-it-government-vehicles-sitting-unused
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Some ritzy rides that you are paying for are sitting idle. A handful of taxpayer funded cars have normally been provided to some senior members of the NYS Senate. This year there is a twist – the Democrats who are now in control of the Senate don’t want the cars. We found the five expensive cars tucked away deep under the Empire State Plaza, covered in dust. There are two top of the line Ford Taurus Limiteds, and one 2017 Ford Explorer Limited, the priciest of the Explorers. There is a 2017 Chevy Tahoe Premier, again a top of the line vehicle. There is also one other older Tahoe. These cars were all purchased when Republicans controlled the Senate, but now the Democrats have grounded these cars. Democratic Senator David Carlucci says just because something has been done a certain way for years, that doesn’t mean the practice has to continue. Even many rank and file Republicans say they have concerns about the purchase of the pricey cars.)

— ‘Have you taken a trip to the Hanoi Hilton yet?’ Meghan McCain trolls Trump after president mocks ‘Da Nang Dick’ Blumenthal saying ‘I have now spent more time in Vietnam than him’ – even though both men avoided the war – ARIEL ZILBER (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who have punished me the most for my seeking and getting a) four student draft deferments 1966-1970 and b) a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. Most of them were my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government. But some are/were religious, conservative, and Republican activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, and political consultants.)
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6753589/Meghan-McCain-trolls-Trump-president-mocks-Da-Nang-Dick-Blumenthal-Vietnam-claims.html

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Meghan McCain, co-host of The View and daughter of late Senator John McCain, hit out at President Trump on Wednesday. She reacted to Trump’s tweet in which he mocked Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut. Trump has repeatedly referred to Blumenthal as ‘Da Nang Dick’ over the Democratic senator’s false claims that he served in Vietnam. ‘I have now spent more time in Vietnam than Da Nang Dick Blumenthal,’ Trump tweeted on Wednesday. Meghan McCain replied: ‘Have you taken a trip to the Hanoi Hilton yet?’ The Hanoi Hilton is where her father was held captive by the North Vietnamese after his plane was shot down during the war. Trump has slammed Blumenthal for his claims about serving in Vietnam – even though Trump himself received multiple deferments and avoided service.)

AMERICAN GENIUS
— The top 5 reasons to reject a job offer Don’t make a mistake and accept a job offer you’ll regret – here’s what to look out for. – Dawn Brotherton (DIERSEN: I knew that I would not “fit in” at the Post Office, IRS, and GAO a) because I have always been a conservative Republican, b) because I was a draft avoider, c) because I opposed patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and d) because my other demographics (White, male, Missouri Synod Lutheran, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, American-nameplate car owner, etc.) were terrible. Nevertheless, I accepted job offers from the Post Office, IRS, and GAO because I erroneously counted on “civil service protections” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_federal_civil_service) to protect me. Further, the main reason why I accepted the Post Office’s job offer in 1966 was that I needed money to pay for college expenses. Further, the main reason why I accepted IRS’s job offer in 1971 was that I was unemployed and I needed money to help support my mother and brother. Further, the main reason why I accepted GAO’s job offer in 1980 was that my Democrat IRS superiors had made it very clear that they were going to get rid of me.)

— Man plans to spend retirement at the Holiday Inn because it’s cheaper (DIERSEN: My 88-year-old aunt is paying $252 per day at an assisted living facility.)
https://abc7chicago.com/society/man-plans-holiday-inn-retirement-because-its-cheaper/5157421/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Robison wrote on Facebook that the average cost of nursing home care is about $188 per day. A long-term stay with a senior discount at Holiday Inn, on the other hand, is $59.23 per day. “That leaves $128.77 a day for lunch and dinner in any restaurant we want, or room service, laundry, gratuities and special TV movies,” he wrote. “Plus, they provide a spa, swimming pool, a workout room, a lounge and washer-dryer, etc.” The benefits of Holiday Inn, Robison added, also include free toothpaste, razors, shampoo and soap. An additional $5 a day in tips will “have the entire staff scrambling to help you” as well, he wrote. “They treat you like a customer, not a patient,” he said. Holiday Inn also provides a spa, swimming pool, gym, lounge and washer-dryers, but the amenities don’t stop there. The location where Robison checked out reservations has a city bus stop right in front, where seniors can ride for free. In addition, guests can “take the airport shuttle bus” to eat at one of the restaurants at the local airport for “a change of scenery,” he wrote. From there, they can take a flight to another Holiday Inn as well, he mused. “You’re not stuck in one place forever — you can move from Inn or Inn, or even from city to city,” he wrote. The competition to find a comfortable room isn’t as steep either, Robison wrote. “It takes months to get into decent nursing homes,” he wrote. “Holiday Inn will take your reservation today.” The maintenance is virtually nonexistent, Robison figured. “TV broken? Light bulbs need changing? Need a mattress replaced? No problem,” Robison wrote. “They fix everything, and apologize for the inconvenience.” Robison did not mention what kind of health he is in, but said staff like a security guard or maid could check to see if he is OK as well as call an ambulance or an undertaker, whichever is needed. “If you fall and break a hip, Medicare will pay for the hip, and Holiday Inn will upgrade you to a suite for the rest of your life,” he wrote, adding that he’d face his “golden age” with “a grin.” A representative for InterContinental Hotels Group, which Holiday Inn is a subsidiary of, did not immediately respond to ABC News’ request for comment.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Venezuelan government briefly detained Jorge Ramos, the star Spanish-language television journalist, during an interview with the country’s embattled president, Nicolas Maduro. Ramos and the Univision News television crew accompanying him were subsequently released. The journalists were detained nearly three hours at Venezuela’s presidential palace after Maduro bristled over Ramos’ questions, a Univision News representative said late Monday. “They have now been released, but their equipment and interview material has been confiscated,” Univision News spokesman Jose Zamora said in an email to The Times. “They will be deported from Venezuela in the morning. It has been a clear attack against freedom of the press.”)

GUARDIAN
— Univision’s Jorge Ramos detained in Venezuela after Maduro interview, network says Anchor, who has reportedly been released, asked question embattled leader did not approve of, according to Univision executive – Joe Parkin Daniels (DIERSEN: If you want to demonize, denigrate, and condemn someone, you call them “combative.” My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would call me “combative.”)
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/feb/25/jorge-ramos-univision-detained-venezuela-maduro-interview
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Univision anchor Jorge Ramos has been detained in the Miraflores presidential palace in Caracas, Venezuela, the network announced on Monday evening. The Mexican-born journalist was interviewing Venezuela’s embattled president Nicolás Maduro when he and his crew were detained after asking a question the combative Maduro did not approve of, according to a tweet by the network’s US president, Daniel Coronell. The team’s equipment had also been confiscated, Coronell said. Coronell later said Ramos and his team had been released and he had spoken to the journalist. The equipment as well as the material that upset Maduro were confiscated. Reuters reported that Venezuela was going to deport the group. Ramos told Univision that the offending line of questioning came when he showed Maduro images taken on Ramos’ phone of Venezuelans eating out of the trash to prove people were living a humanitarian crisis.
