I'm just looking for an excuse to publish the ad for a second time in three days. The muffled sounds of paranoid anguish will be emanating from a familiar source.
No tolls groups refocus effort; They’re now pushing to keep tolls off of Interstate 65, by Braden Lammers (Combined Omni Newspaper)
... (Paul) Fetter also has no plans on diminishing his effort.
“Some people still aren’t aware 65 is going to be tolled,” he said.
He added that from the initial proposals of the project where Indiana was slated to cover a little more than $1.1 billion — or 28 percent of the total $4.1 billion total — implementing any tolling mechanism disproportionately puts a burden on Hoosiers.
“There’s a lot of inequity on how the thing’s going to be funded if it’s funded by tolls,” Fetter said.

Another newspaper might not allow the officials pictured to be silent on the subject of tolls. Or allow Bridges Authority members to keep publicly claiming the project will create over 50,000 jobs when their own documentation says otherwise. Or may have mentioned the fact that state transportation officials recently claiming that changes can be incorporated into the plan and approved in a year or less completely contradicts the claims made for years by several prominent figures that any changes would require completely starting the process over. Or might even seek to compare the population, jobs, and traffic projections used to justify the initial approval of ORBP to actual data collected since.
It really seems as if the "news" biz has failed anyone who wants to challenge the powers-that-be. I think it we need a "Special News District" established by the Federal Government on our region. We are drowning in misinformation.
