Colorado Confidential | Denver Post | Westword
The
editorial refers to Colorado Gov.
Bill Ritter as "Jimmy Hoffa," "a toady for labor bosses" and "a bag man for unions." The governor's spokesman says: "The language used and the placement demonstrate a certain hysteria that stems from [Post owner
Dean] Singleton's personal dislike of organized labor." He adds: "I think the degree of the personal attacks is a bit surprising for a newspaper of this caliber. To stoop to this level is unbecoming." ||
Background on the editorial from
