Tribune's reporting

For those of you who choose not to get the printed version of the Tribune, here is a link to the article on the recent Board and Commissioners meeting
The News and Tribune - Hospital, Floyd County Commissioners talk finances

As you can see from the paper, there were very few details given to reporters. Answers were vague and the reporter did not seem to push for more specifics.

One thing very noticeable to many people is the fact that virtually all of the information recently coming out of Floyd is coming from the Chairman of the Board and not the CEO.

This is a radical shift from what has occurred in the past 10 plus years.

As with other area hospitals, the public relations department and/or CEO is usually the person or persons making the majority of public statements.

In my opinion, this change makes a statement that the Chairman appears to be running the show at the present time rather than the CEO.

Hopefully this means that issues are finally being addressed and appropriate changes will be made.

Maybe the CEO is just getting tired of your attacks.

He left out "the meeting then adjourned for punch and cookies" and "a good time was had by all"

Instead of spreading gossip, you might better spend your time taking a keyboarding class. You would look a lot smarter if you knew how to use the caps key correctly, the space bar and, maybe, a little basic punctuation.

I don't get it. The various comments posted here in response to Dan's blog entry don't seem relevant to this posting nor the Tribune's article which was talking about the meeting with the County Commissioners and the Board.

Are these postings addressing something only an insider knows? I refer especially to anonymous 5:30 pm, and 10:30 pm. What are they talking about????

In response to Anon 9:24:

This blog is an outlet for those who lead lives of irrelevance. Is it any wonder their comments would follow the same path?

In any event, it is quite humorous to keep up with what goes on here.
