    Flap and Victor

    Election season is upon us here in Thousand Oaks. Hence, Flap will be posting his FAVS and not so FAVS in this space.

    It is unfortunate, that local press coverage has gone extinct in the Conejo Valley. We used to have extensive local coverage by three print genuine newspapers: Thousand Oaks New Chronicle (Sister of the Ventura County Star); the Los Angeles Times and the Los Angeles Daily News. But, alas, the internet and social media killed them for local political coverage.

    Today, we have the Thousand Oaks Acorn and the Ventura County Star who remain. But, the Acorn newspapers are a weekly shopper and the VC Star, a real daily newspaper, has a very reduced reporting staff (except for local sports).

    Nobody reads the remaining journals, either online or in print, and who would certainly delve into the body of one of them to read a letter to the editor.

    Never Fear.

    Flap will give you the true poop and recommend for whom (as an informed citizen living in Thousand Oaks) you should vote.

    Comments are turned off (too many overseas spam links), but you can agree or disagree with me on Twitter (@Flap). Let it rip!
