The Chron and Their Pseudo-Liberal Viewpoints.
The Chron is a right wing rag, a Fox-News-Lite-on-Paper, as we've documented quite extensively here. The "liberal" columnist was Jon Carroll, at least when Phil Bronstein edited the paper. He vehemently opposed bringing another voice on board, that of former mayor Willie Brown. Then Ward Bushee became editor and Willie became a columnist for the Chron.
But there's no fear that, even though he's registered Democrat, Willie would bring a progressive perspective to the newspaper. Willie's voice is fresh and funny, but a liberal advocate he is not. Today we get:
Here's an economic indicator you won't see on the business pages - the big parties are back...
Gordon Getty pulled the plug last year on his annual combination birthday and Christmas party. This year, it's on.
Dede Wilsey is readying the retractable roof of her home for her annual winter wonderland...
Some may resent the return of pre-meltdown parties, but remember - they're a healthy boost to the hundreds of waiters, bartenders, caterers, entertainers, valet car parkers and everyone else who makes a living in the hospitality business in the city.
Even the Chron liberal columnists advocate Reaganite trickle-down rising-tide-lift-all-boats economics. What's good for Dede is good for SF.
Oh boy.
