Noted below is a fine example of just about the worst reporting we've all seen in a long time, though it is not recent. It is sensationalistic, rakes muck at warp speed, quotes Dr. Jacques Anthony Pluss out-of-context, and is plainly incorrect in many places. Furthermore, this kindly De Marco character saw fit to excoriate Dr. Pluss in his January 2011 piece, but seems to adamantly refuse to permit a reply from Pluss or, more importantly, to report on his recent, rather mild sentencing. Finally, Dr. Pluss articulated a political and cultural position on the Internet; he never engaged in "spewing hatred," whatever in the world those so very subjective words happen to mean. Below, I give you De Marco's original article title from the "Cliffview Pilot" -- although it may not be particularly complimentary to Dr. Pluss, it has a negative character precisely because it is a heap of garbage. It's truly too bad that many people read this sort of thing and actually believe it ! That, in and of itself, is nearly unbelievable, until we remind ourselves that this is America, where critical thinking has never been encouraged. All I can say to Mr. De Marco is: "I wish for you exactly what has happened to Pluss, nothing more and nothing less." -- Wolff.
