Argus Leader Caught With Their Left Pants Leg Down

Greg Belfrage of Dakota Watercooler now has a transcript of Dan Scott's recent speech regarding Sioux Falls development.

As you can see from previous postings at the Dakota Watercooler, South Dakota War College and other places, it's raised quite a stink...mainly coming from the Argus Leader.

When discussing the development of the Sioux Falls community, Scott said, "So if you just can't bring yourself to catch the excitement, then at least stay out of the way, because there is a bunch of us here that have a city to build."

Randall Beck had a completely snotty op/ed about Scott's speech which really distorted the whole context of what he said. What the Argus was so upset about was more likely the shots Scott took at the Argus at the beginning of his speech. The Argus knew those comments about their liberal bias wouldn't get much traction with the public (the public knows too well that the Argus is undeniably biased to the Left), so they took something from the speech they felt they could get some mileage out of, if they bent it completely out of context.

Go read the text of Scott's speech at the Dakota Watercooler and I believe you'll see that what he said was nothing more than a motivational statement that didn't disparage anyone.
