A judge yesterday kept the date for the stricken city's mayoral election April 22.'<br /><br /> Upon seeing this picture I was looking forward to reading more about it. Well, there wasn't any more since it stated, (after looking at the picture four times), to turn to page A4 for more details. The article on page four made no ties to what the picture was portraying. This was an editorial decision to play down the story behind this picture. It was not as important as the Lame Duck article about President Bush on the same page. Aren't the voting rights of the New Orleans victims much more important? That picture should have been followed up with an article on the same page. I definitely think so. Don't you?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19068532-114421137669489054?l=antiracismwatch.blogspot.com'/></div>anessahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16169505037110389461noreply@blogger.com1
