In reviewing numerous news items from the period surrounding this video for an upcoming media interview, I must say I am disappointed that The Desert Trumpet never made the effort to reach out to me or any other staff member at Desert Beacon for any sort of comment. My name was misspelled and Desert Beacon was not even referenced in association. Given that we were actively participating in the VHR dialogue, regularly attending the meetings and were instrumental in developing the VHR Good Neighbor Certificate program at the request of the City, one can only wonder on why The Desert Trumpet could not have made more of an effort if your goal is to provide objective reporting. I feel that this was a very significant missed opportunity in which we could have effected a better outcome for or City of 29 Palms and the entire gateway area. I would love to sit down and have frank conversation if you intend to follow up on this story.
