Do businesses flee from Clark?
Just read the Feb. 11 letter from Karen Kearney concerning Doug Clark, and it does raise some interesting points. Now, I’ve never thought of Doug Clark as a journalist, per se. His column to me is more like an opinion piece: “The World According to Doug Clark,” if you will.
If he were indeed a journalist, then, yes, he would have to adhere to the rules of the game (and I assume they’re all still in place). Ha!
As things stand, I generally find his take on things interesting and, on a good day, highly entertaining.
Now, if Kearney can find a legitimate example of someone who decided to locate his or her business elsewhere because of that darn Doug Clark, then maybe she’s on to something, but otherwise … puh-leeze.

If we are going to fire Doug Clark, because we do not like him making fun of our city. We better fire Jay Leno too, after all, the only time our city gets on the Tonight Show, is because of our queer bashing gay mayor, and our ugly prostitutes. I am sure that has cost us a few jobs, and discourages people from moving here. Or we could stop doing things like rehiring drunk cops. and making ourselves a laughing stock, all over the country. Firing Doud, and Jay does seem simpler.
