THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, July 29, 2022 Page 3 ~ OPiNiON ~ THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING How can you believe anything Resnek and Philbin publish now? By James D. Mitchell, Publisher t takes a lot of work to publish a newspaper – even one as simple as the Everett Leader-Herald. To put 8 pages together, written in large type and even larger pictures, all one has to do, with any imagination, create some news and information; entertainment for the readers. And in the end, what you put in those pages, should be fair, balanced, and most of all, honest. Whether it be an opinion, an editorial or news article on the news of the day, week, month or year. But when you take that I newspaper, and hire a reporter whose integrity and journalistic morals are literally up for sale, then you have created a weapon that can be used for nothing but evil. Such is the legacy that is the Everett Leader-Herald, now mired in lies, deceit and outright deception. But karma has a way of coming back and biting you in the keester. In Resnek’s case – he’s an all-out loser. He’s been fi red from so many reporting positions as he’s not trusted by any news outlet – although the Boston Globe has allowed the bottom feeder to swim around their tank. He was even forced out from his own newspaper company he had ownership in – the Independent Newspaper Group in Revere. With respect to his mission, it was learned from his last deposition taken on June 30th, Resnek his boss, Matthew Philbin, never had any faith in their candidates, according to his statement, that he and Philbin ”never believed he was going to be beaten” despite writing, over a period of three-plus years, the most derogatory and incendiary articles of lies and falsehoods to ever be published in local print leading up to the 2021 election. I wonder how their candidates Fred Capone and Gerly Adrian must be feeling knowing the two “publishers” never had any faith in their campaigns. But lucky for them, Resnek crossed the boundaries of journalism, lowering them each and every week in order to hurt the mayor and his family at any cost. Despicable. But nevertheless, they did hope the mayor would be beaten back in 2021, hence the articles of The Blue Suit, Eye on Everett, and just nonstop fi ctitious garbage being written by Resnek and pushed by Philbin. As the Chinese general and philosopher Sun Tzu once said, “An evil enemy, will burn his own nation to the ground… to rule over the ashes.” And that’s just what Philbin, with the help of his “wordsmith” general have attempted to do to the city of Everett and its citizens. This was a vendetta, seemingly fueled by former DeMaria friends Michael and Joseph Marchese, to “drop bombs” as Resnek wrote, about the mayor in order to knock him out of the 2021 election. As of late, the Leader-Herald has also disgustingly painted the city as a racist city, despite the ongoing infl ux of people, families of color, that continue to prosper in Everett over the last 20 years. The city has indeed changed and the mayor and his administration has made it an open and welcoming city for everyone to thrive. As of late, we see the city council meetings being dragged on thanks to a few obstructionists who, like Resnek and Philbin, will do anything to carry the water of the two spreaders of lies and fabrications, all in the name of power and greed – everything they falsely accuse the mayor of doing. As an appalling example, Resnek falsely accuses the mayor of pressuring City Clerk Sergio Cornelio into paying him for a commercial land deal when in actuality; it was ResOPINION | SEE PAGE 4 2.55 CD The k se you like to see.
