Commentary - Why Not His House? By Donna Groves PADUCAH, KY - Very little surprises me anymore, but I must say the emails and phone calls I’ve been getting espousing the view that churches should not be used for anything other than worship services puzzle me.
Donna there's a big difference Between $500 and $3000. Donna do you consider that a donation to the West Kentucky Star?
The real reasons are much less dramatic. First, the church is providing the venue at no cost whereas holding it at a public site elsewhere would have cost anywhere from $500 to $3000.
We have detailed both here and here about how a far-right radio station owned by Bristol Broadcasting is holding a propoganda meeting in a church. They feature a panel of "knowledgable people" including a right-wing reporter, and a Doctor who is a huge contributor to Republicans who will present far-right-wing talking points as fact and will attempt to propogandize religous folks in Western Kentucky.
You won't believe what you're about to read. I had no knowledge of the West Kentucky Star before I went to Paducah, Kentucky last week to see the CNN Express. When I arrived home from Paducah I found an email in my in box linking me to this West Kentucky Star article. Note that the article is a screen shot, because the article has been changed. The article said "An informational meeting will be held at 6pm Thursday, August 27, at Heartland Worship Center in Paducah." I contacted several people and we started researching Karen Farthing and Dr. Shawn Jones. We found, in our opinion, they were too biased to conduct any kind of Health Care Information meeting especially in a church. Of course this is just our opinion and it's important for our readers to know how we came to that conclusion. Karen Farthing, a reporter for WestKentuckyStar.com, claims to have studied proposed Health Care legislation and has already stated her position on it, click here to view it, if it's been taken down, click here to view a screen shot.
