Re: An Open Letter to Talmadge Heflin
You know what I didn’t see in the paper this morning? I didn’t see a correction to yesterday’s factually challenged op-ed written by Talmadge Heflin. Here, DMN editors, you can cut and paste: Conrad High has more than 1,300 students, not the 670 claimed by Heflin; it does not have an onsite “steakhouse restaurant”; and DISD does publish its financial information, contrary to what Heflin wrote.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

1 inch, lower right corner of the editorial page – it only corrects the district’s publishing of its financial information. Does not call into question any of the other “factual” (hahahahahaha) information thsy they did not take the time to fact check.
Again – 15 people on the Opinions staff, and they can’t fact check or even write a correct correction?
Amy, you should write a rebuttal.
I’m done writing for free for the DMN, they need to pay a REAL writer (not a blogger mom who frequently uses “I” and too many commas). They pay to write the negative stuff (and Kent is a good writer), but rely on amateurs to fill in the rest (can you say NeighborsGo?).
Besides I’ve written opinion pieces for them and they’ve edited the good stuff out. No Fun At All.
How dare anybody spend money on below-median-income-household kids. It’s harrumph an outrage! That money could have be spent bankrupting future generations so that Little George might feel properly empenised! Instead, if we twist the semantics just so, it would appear our tax dollars feed brown children meat. Where I come from, that’s called socialism.
Thus spake Sir Topham Hat.
Amy, let’s start a column for the DMN called, “Nuh-uhhhh.”
Amy S. is indefatigable and I heart her.
Tamalefudge Hellfin.
It’s an opinion piece. Some people must interpret that to mean they can make up their own facts so they can maintain their opinions with minimal cognitive dissonance.
