Commissioners Court and the El Paso Times

Yo confieso ante...I subscribe to the El Paso Times.

"You're welcome, Zahira."

But maybe it is me, but I have noticed something.

Back when CongressX Veronica Escobar was County Judge and at times it appeared that the El Paso Times was the de facto public information officer for the Commissioners Court. 

There was always a story in the paper about the County.

But ever since Ricardo Samaniego was sworn-in, it has been relatively quiet.  

Could it be because once Escobar left all the problems at the County left?

Or could it be because the El Paso Times acts as Escobar's spokesX and that it has new marching orders because she is no longer at the County?

Then folks at the El Paso Times wonder why the media is distrusted.

Let me give you and update. Take notes Zahira.
David Stout spends more time in Austin giving legislative opinions than his lobbyists. Maybe he’s interested in running for his old boss’s job?
Robinson missed almost 3 months straight and not a peep from the media. I guess his Commissioner representation is much like his city days, non existent.
Samaniego sounds like a beat up cholo who can barely sputter out a few words to sound like he’s remotely sober. Too bad all he can talk about is mental health. Maybe he can pass out Xanax instead of improving our roads.
If it weren’t for Perez, Leon and Wiles, our county might as well go back to the days of Betty Flores and Anthony Cobos. At least those b****es knew how to party.
