Holding Reid accountable does everyone in the U.S., not just Nevada, a great service.
Thanks.

I hope I am wrong, but he seems like a very selfish man in charge of the Senate. It takes a BIG man to be a big man and in my opinion this comment to the Review-journal shows again that Sen Reid does not measure up.

Greg wrote on September 07, 2009 12:29 PM: Sherman Frederick comes across as a child ranting, or an adult whose paper is fading in relevance, sans local entertainment reporting and marketing, someone who is reaching and grasping as a businessman-opportunist for mindless, conflict-seeking chatter, anything to sell one more newspaper, and put in some kind of anti-change Republican Party message.

The status quo been the kind of relationships and mindsets that sustained his paper's revenues for a good number of years. Big pants in a small, locked up town, but now perhaps today's newfound Pretender, which singer Jackson Browne originally wrote and sang about in the mid 70s with regard to new suburbia along the freeway. Today's pretender is older, whitebread, and increasingly (1) negative, (2) frustrated and (3) irrelevant.

Old school newspaper man? Hardly.

They would have congratulated BYU on a big upset win over Oklahoma, allowing Senator Reid to enjoy the outcome on a Sunday devoid of pitching sand, inviting anyone within earshot to come wrestle in the sandbox.

Nevadans want Harry Reid out so desperately they'll vote for anyone with a half-way decent platform. Face it, Harry, you're old and your time has come and gone. Time to go back to Searchlight and blend in with all the locals. I'm sure you don't know a soul in your "hometown".

I can't imagine going to anyone - friend or foe and making a laughable response that they should go out of business, especially in this economic climate, and intend it as a joke.

The only joke I see is on Harry-the-ego for a newspaper finally having the guts to call this clown out. Good luck getting rid of him though, I’d bet Nevada has so much pork funneling through this guy, my 1040 bill has personally bought a monument with Reid’s name on it – and I’m from MN! Thank you LVRJ for speaking out.

How about an article on our MN senators and their closed town-hall meetings ? There is no media in our state that has the courage to stand up to this corrupt DFL machine.

LAFEDUR wrote on September 02, 2009 05:53 PM: I now believe that as long as I don't write anything positive about Sherman Frederick, my comments won't be published.That shows that you don't like to be criticized.Where is your honesty? Don't forget that the Nevada demographic has changed for ever. This is my third time trying to voice my point. You have tried to make people think (dummies) that Las Review Journal is not a Republican Newspaper or unbiased and independent, like your NIXON/DIXON POLL putting unknown Tarkanian ahead of Reid.I can't wait until we re-elect Reid again, as an effective senator, who has worked tiredlessly to promote Nevada's course.
I will only give you any credence or credibility if you can talk about the Nevada's INEPT Senator Ensign. He is in Washington representing his pocket and GOP donors and not Nevada. You have a great Senaor Reid who has consistently worked hard to put Nevada on the national map and yet your intense hatred has blinded you so much that one day you will be given a pink slip and return to the Republican establishment.
In a nutshell, Sherman, when you can trust your wife with Ensign for a week or two in a hotel, then come back and write us your observation.
If you have the gut to publish this, then I will list and contrast achievements by Senator Reid against other Nevada senators in the last 30 years.

Real Vegas Newsmen are named Bill, or Hank, or Ned.

What a whiner.
