Opinion: Columbus’ Flock Debate Is Not Facts Versus Feelings

Technically, there were mixed views. Five is not zero. But journalism should communicate proportion as well as existence. Describing a hearing where roughly nine out of ten public speakers opposed the cameras simply as “mixed views” is like describing a 90–10 election result as evidence that voters supported both candidates. It is literally true and substantively misleading. More importantly, this framing obscures what opponents actually argued.

Police provide facts. The public provides feelings. That is not what happened Monday.

superdave 3 days ago Sinclair is not even close to a trustworthy source of news and never will be. They will spin it in favor of a police state every time.

Columbus: the only midwestern metro where millennial renters are still the majority

The evidence that Columbus powerbrokers, developers and sold-out office holders such as Mayor Ginther are determined to force Columbus young adults into tiny, overpriced apartments so to maximize profits has been supported and corroborated once again.

Spreading the word

ICE is confirmed to be in Columbus as of last night. Currently based at the Hampton inn at 4150 stelzer. 200 people roughly. The rumors through advocacy channels are that they are going to be conducting raids for the next 3 weeks. If you see anything weird you can report it to the Ohio immigrant alliance 419-778-4357.

Greg Levy

There's a socialist candidate running for senate.

Greg Levy’s Senate bid: confiscate the top 100 corporations, give workers democratic control, and enshrine housing, healthcare, education and price caps as constitutional rights. He vows to slash the Pentagon 90%, end forever wars, abolish ICE, guarantee abortion and gender-affirming care, pay reparations, and prosecute police and the rich.

What are your best sushi places in Columbus?

My wife and I just tried the Kura up by Polaris and I realized I've been to one in Phoenix before. Was good with creative rolls but it's not our favorite or fanciest restaurant.

So far the best traditional restaurant we found is Yoshi's on Frantz Rd. They have a special import menu that will knock your socks off but will dent your pocket book.

Most creative was Richi on 3rd street downtown. Very innovative but may not be everyone's tastes. There's an IPA with an owl on it there and it's the only IPA I can drink.

My "everday" sushi place is Ronin near Tuttle. Classic modern style sushi restaurant.
