Hi, Paul. I hope this finds you well. Just a quick note about Bitter/Better. The issues surrounding the demise of Bitter Lemons and the explosion surrounding its previous editor-in-chief were and are not, truly, as black and white as you (and others) have and would continue to paint it. It’s mere opinion that the previous editor-in-chief at the original site was out for personal aggrandizement over journalism any more or less than any other essayist is out for same. And I truly wish people in the community could see the difference between defending Colin Mitchell’s aptly described “unfortunate” articles and defending his right to have printed them because it’s that form of reactionary furor that brought us our current Fuhrer. Best to you. And I’m getting a tattoo of a heart with “Judge Tatter” inscribed over it. Later.
It’s disturbing when every opinion piece is laced with some lie about Equity. 2/3 of the union membership in Los Angeles did not vote against the referendum. Union membership in Los Angeles is around 7,000. 2,000 voted against the referendum. That is less than 30% of Equity members in the entire County.
Using that logic, only 15% of the entire Los Angeles membership voted FOR the referendum. Meaning that 85% were either against it, or chose not to vote for it.

Can someone explain to Jr Clark how voting works?

Ezra, I do hope you haven’t gotten that tattoo yet. Check the headlines about Hatter.
