An Isolated Desolation doubletake
The Chronicle editorialists just can't help themselves.
Today, they managed to take an issue that many can agree on -- poor conditions at the Harris County jail -- and come up with a typical editorial that's all over the place.
Sedosi Alhambra had the following reaction:
There are times when you read an editorial that's so bad, you have to get up, walk away, come back, and re-read it to make sure what you read the first time was actually what was printed.
That happens quite frequently on the editorial pages of the Chronicle, which Isolated Desolation has dubbed Mrs. White for their frequent cheerleading for Mayor White.
For a thoughtful post on the Harris County jail that appeared on the same day as the Chronicle's initial reporting on the topic, see Tom Kirkendall's blog. Not only did Kirkendall's post pack elegance, wit, and insight, but it was also timely!
