Bulldogs begin season with losses at Callisburg and Community
Questions: What happens when 90 percent of the media is owned (controlled) by six corporations? What happens when those same corporations are operated and controlled by a political ideology? What happens when the news is no longer free from bias? What happens when the news is no longer reliable and independent? What happens when the news is no longer trustworthy? What happens when the news simply becomes an extension or arm of a political party? Does fact become fiction? Does fiction become fact? When does news become propaganda? How does the average busy person find time to research and discern fact versus fiction? Is the majority of people more prone to believe someone in power sitting behind a big brand ‘news’ name? Do people tend to follow the majority or mainstream viewpoint in fear of being isolated or shunned? Why do mainstream media heads, within different organizations, always use the same keywords or catchphrases? Do they count on the fact

Former Mayor Stanley recognized by city council
Former Mayor Jeff Stanley receives a plaque for his 10-year service as Mayor of Howe. At the regular Howe City Council meeting on Tuesday, the council and new Mayor Bill French recognized outgoing Mayor Jeff Stanley and presented him a plaque for his 10-year service. The plaque read: “This is presented in grateful appreciation of Jeffery Stanley for over 10 years for dedicated service to the citizens as the Mayor of Howe, Texas presented this 19th day of November 2019.” Most all of the City of Howe employees were onhand for the recognition. City Administrator Joe Shephard said that Stanley had been a staunch and dedicated supporter of all the employees of the city. “I couldn’t ask for a better mayor to work under and I’ll miss you and I wish you well and thank you for what you’ve done for us,” said Shephard.
Stanley then thanked everyone and said it was an honor not only to serve with the council but to also have served as mayor. “I didn’t ever expect this,” said Stanley as he began to get a little emotional. “I served for you and wherever I went, I told them we had the best council and the best employees.” Mayor French commented in favor of Shephard and City Secretary Joy Stevens for helping him get up to speed in his first month as mayor. “They have helped, they’ve answered questions and if they’ve laughed at me, they've at least waited until I left the room,” said French. “They’re very, very helpful in guidance and council. Maybe in 10 years, I’ll be half the mayor that Mayor Stanley was,” said French.
