In a March 4, 2020 story about the sewer that is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/blog\/2020\/01\/29\/marlene-fosque-ethics-board-sustains-two-of-six-points-in-complaint-against-gwinnett-commissioner-marlene-fosque-warning-recommended\/\">Gwinnett County Commission politics<\/a> and their ethics rules, the liberal AJC describes me as an &#8220;anti-illegal immigration activist&#8221; (hooray! they got it right! &#8211; see second paragraph on right side column in image below) then reverts to their usual anti-accuracy smear campaign by describing me as &#8220;an anti-immigration activist&#8221; in the blurb under the photo of the rather dim Marlene Fosque. I sent a note to the management, including editor Kevin Riley, demanding a correction, but as usual, they are happy to run lies. There was no correction. Riley does not return phone calls or emails.<\/p>\n<p>The liberal AJC announced in 2012 that it was eliminating the position of public editor\/ombudsman when then public editor Shawn McIntosh <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imediaethics.org\/public-editor-role-ended-at-atlanta-journal-constitution\/\">explained<\/a> that\u00a0\u201cinstead, we\u2019re asking our entire newsroom leadership team to take on some of the public editor duties of listening to readers and responding to their concerns.\u201d As I have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/blog\/2019\/08\/06\/14282\/\">noted before<\/a>, since the liberal AJC cleansed itself of \u00a0the now former Senior Managing Editor, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/blog\/2017\/10\/23\/10263\/\">Bert Roughton,<\/a> the only editor who replies to my complaints and queries is opinion page editor, Andre Jackson.<\/p>\n<p>As I have told the liberal AJC management, editors and reporters for seventeen years, I am <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ajc.com\/news\/opinion\/readers-write\/0Lxaz8XDqDwL7P7eKxnQYI\/\">not anti-immigrant or anti-immigration<\/a>. Neither are any of the immigrants who support the Dustin Inman Society and are on our board. But liberals are liberals. And the smear agenda must be driven.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ILLEGAL-ALIENS-ARE-NOT-IMMIGRANTS-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-15407\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ILLEGAL-ALIENS-ARE-NOT-IMMIGRANTS-1-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ILLEGAL-ALIENS-ARE-NOT-IMMIGRANTS-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ILLEGAL-ALIENS-ARE-NOT-IMMIGRANTS-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ILLEGAL-ALIENS-ARE-NOT-IMMIGRANTS-1.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can read the entire liberal AJC yarn here in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pressreader.com\/usa\/the-atlanta-journal-constitution\/20200304\/282059099048349\">Press Reader<\/a> if you want to register.
