Jud Burgess Unfiltered – Props for rising journalist Aaron Montes and his annoying the paranoid El Paso mayor Dee Margo

August 01, 2018

I give rising star journalist Aaron Montes his well-deserved praise and pick apart mayor Dee “hold the line on taxes” Margo for his continued public exhibitions of paranoia and bully-pulpit abuse towards those who oppose him.

• • • • •

Some choice lines from the broadcast:

“Margo was whining in this letter and accusing Mr. Montes of bad practices for a journalist because Aaron followed him into the restroom to talk to him. And to me, I love that about Aaron.

The fact that he would trail the mayor into the restroom because he knows the mayor is not going to make himself available anywhere else…that’s what you call chutzpah…that’s what you call “ganas” and that’s what the local news media needs.” **

** Montes did not enter the bathroom, but rather waited outside by the 2nd floor conference room.

“But Dee Margo is not transparent. He’s about as transparent as guacamole. He’s been tossing his emails.”

“read these two letters, the conversation between mayor Margo and Aaron Montes and you’ll see the difference between a paranoid mayor who’s trying to undermine the ability of a local news person to do his job and Aaron Montes who is completely professional, completely above board, letting Margo know exactly what his story is going to be on, and giving him the opportunity to release those emails that Margo says he doesn’t have available.”
