Comment On The Media

Editor's note:   We could agree more.  The Telegram has not run one story on the numbers around the Polar Park or the fact no property taxes are being paid...    Every day there seems to be a puff piece in the Telegram on the WooSox/Polar Park.  

How can nobody report on the finances of a $160,000,000 taxpayer funded project?????

Only the WBJ seems to be wpeevn interested in asking the question. Also, the fact that Wanamaker gets attacked just for asking is telling. If the question could be answered with god news, it would have been

I hope that I’m not correct.

Does it seem that the development at the old Mt. Carmel site is moving along faster than any of the development near Polar Park? I think they only bought the property a few months ago.

It looks like they are building much faster but they have a bigger lot to work with. A question, does the developer have the same hiring requirements that Madison has, and was behind in reporting?
