News or Advertising
Did anyone notice this item which was listed under "news": http://www.tehachapinews.co...
When I read it, it seemed like an advertisement posted to get folks to buy houses. Then, when I saw it was authored by a firm engaged in real estate sales, it kind of ticked me off that the Tehachapi News would report this story under "News". The way the thing was written, if it was done in a way to avoid it appearing as an advertisement, it wasn't worded good.
At any rate, although I'm all for house sales and a good economy, it just seemed like it was done improperly. Could be that I'm just not in a good mood today. If so, I'll chalk it off to not getting enough sleep....... 4 comments from 4 users

Yes, that did sound very deceptive and self-serving... Certainly not an objective article. posted by

You are correct. It appeared in the newspaper as a letter to the editor, and it should have been posted online under the "Forums" section. We are moving it there. posted by
