Avi Solomon Bashes The Voice Of Lakewood

Avi Solomon uses the Matzav to bash The Voice Of Lakewood regarding this past weeks' Voice cover story. The following is the article: This past week I have received numerous e-mails and personal words of support after The Voice, a local magazine in Lakewood, granted Assemblymen Joe Malone and Ronald Dancer free positive publicity. The outrage that people expressed to me was that The Voice didn’t grant me the right to argue my case for voters of Lakewood to elect me this June 2nd in the Republican Primary election. I have no hard feelings that Malone and Dancer did the interview. They are fighting for votes just like me and the media is the best tool to use. I don’t even resent the fact that The Voice didn’t grant me equal air time. A paper or magazine has the right to interview and publicize whomever and whatever they want. The way I see it, MSNBC is the mouthpiece for President Obama and The Voice wants to be the mouthpiece for Malone and Dancer. That is how journalism works. he problem I have with the expose that The Voice wrote on Malone and Dancer is that it demonstrated poor journalism like never before. The article didn’t challenge Malone or Dancer at all. The Voice was too busy singing the praises of Malone and Dancer’s accomplishments to question the two whether they take any responsibility for NJ’s current dreadful situation. One huge segment of the article was solely dedicated to Malone and Dancer bragging about all the governmental programs that they brought to Lakewood. If I was conducting the interview, I would have followed up with the question, “Then why aren’t you two running in the Democratic Primary?” The Democrats run on the campaign theme of “vote for us and we’ll give you free stuff.” Republicans believe in lower taxes and encouraging the hard working American. My suggestion to The Voice is to offer Malone and Dancer free advertisement in their magazine. I assure you that free advertisement would be a much better way of serving the current Assemblymen than writing propaganda articles for them. I make my appeal once more. If you want to vote for the politicians who have currently bankrupted NJ and take no responsibility, then vote for Malone and Dancer. I am running on lower taxes and fighting the problem of illegal immigrants in NJ. I am running on fighting corruption. I am running on the concept of equal representation for all groups within the 30th district. If anyone who is reading this article believes in this, then please vote for Avi Solomon on June 2nd.
