Verner’s ground rules of behavior

In our editorial board meeting with new Mayor Mary Verner yesterday, she gave us a handout listing the "Mayor's ground rules of behavior."

They are:
Just the facts -- no spin. Listen here.

Just the truth -- no lies.

Just a moment -- no surprises. Listen here.

A Matter of Opinion is really a matter of three opinions – those held by the people responsible for the opinion pages of The Spokesman-Review. Check in regularly to find out what they’re up to, what they think and where they differ and to joust with them if you want.
