Jeff Noedel, Publisher of CountyNewsLIVE.com, has once again taken a gratuitous swipe at Northern District Associate Commissioner Matt Penning. Embedded within a "news" article about Gasconade County's swearing in ceremony today, Mr. Noedel took another cheap shot at Commissioner Penning by observing as follows:
"Associate Commissioner Matt Penning (north district) and county surveyor Paul Dopuch were not present."
Noedel writes a statement like this without bothering to investigate the reason for Commissioner Penning's absence. Noedel allows his readers to draw the conclusion which Noedel wants them to draw which is a negative conclusion.
I know the reason for Commissioner Penning's absence today. If Noedel had done the follow-up work he should be doing as a "news reporter", he would know the reason too. Commissioner Penning will likely NOT contact Noedel to tell him the reason he missed the swearing in ceremony, and that's because Noedel has consistently made every effort to throw Penning "under the bus" in just about every article he has ever written about the Gasconade County Commission. If Noedel wants to know why Penning has stopped granting him interviews, he need only look in the mirror. Noedel has never and will never give Penning a fair shake.
A resident of Hermann (who shall remain unnamed by this reporter) made a comment on the CNL website. This resident was understandably misled by Noedel, and her comment reflected the fact that she had not sought to learn the "other side of the story". I understand that she has been contacted by Commissioner Penning and has been told the reason for his absence. I am waiting to see whether this woman will make another comment on CNL retracting her initial hasty comment. At this juncture, I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and presume that she will comment further now that she knows the TRUTH.
I am not going to report what Commissioner Penning was doing today. Suffice it to say that it involved a generous act of human kindness. Commissioner Penning was a Good Samaritan today by helping another human being who is suffering through a serious medical condition and his wife who is struggling to keep everything going at their home. I am proud to call Matt Penning my friend. And I am also proud to be represented by Matt Penning on the Gasconade County Commission.
As for Jeff Noedel ..... he is a disruptive influence in our small community. Jeff Noedel is a sniveling muckraker and excrement agitator! Jeff Noedel holds petty grudges and misuses his so-called "news" website to intentionally mischaracterize the motives, intents and objectives of certain individuals with whom he disagrees, and in the case of Commissioner Penning, an individual in county government who will no longer grant him access for interviews.
Mr. Noedel, you have burnt and you are burning many bridges in the Hermann community. It's time for you to move on. I encourage you to fold up your laptop, put your camera in its case, shutdown your cellphone and move along to some other community. Hermann does not need a person like you who intentionally misrepresents the news in order to stir up controversy for your own commercial self interest! Hermann will do just fine with Don Kruse, a real journalist, and The Hermann Advertiser-Courier, a legitimate news publication!

Hey Jimmy - You're an idiot. What kind of a "professional" slams another person of the same profession in public? Talk about muckrakers. Only an idiot would take a statement of fact, "Associate Commissioner Matt Penning (north district) and county surveyor Paul Dopuch were not present." and turn it into some kind of biased reporting. In fact, Jimmy, if that is your real name, you should try reporting something of fact yourself. It would be quite a change!
ReplyDeleteJeff Noedel of CNL again shows his class act . He always goes the extra mile to break it off in peoples asses! Whether someone does an act of kindness for others or community service work he loves to belittle anyone that isn't in his little click. You think you are a reporter well try doing a little work! There are a lot of people that like to do good for others, WE'RE NOT ALL BAD!! If you don't like my comment feel free to call me,you know who I am. The lady from Hermann might like to know who was present when her Commissioner was sworn in. Ron Meyer Owensville, Mo.

Yes, Jeffy Pooh, you failed to mention in your caustic article that when Matt Penning was sworn into office after he won the 2008 election for his first term that neither Jerry D. Lairmore nor Ron Jost nor Lesa Leitzow nor Shawn Schlottach were in attendance to shake his hand and welcome him aboard! Just an honest but careless oversight, Jeffy Pooh, or another one of your intentional omissions of fact?!
ReplyDeleteJeffy Pooh, you are so transparent and so obviously "in the tank" for the politicians who are being exposed by Northern District Associate Commissioner Matt Penning! As a journalist, you are a fraud! Ha ha ha!

Dick Schaefer is now officially crazy. How is a statement of fact "in the tank" for another politician? A very illogical conclusion.
ReplyDeleteYa think so, Anonymous? How else would you explain Noedel's obvious one-sided
ReplyDelete"reporting"?
Anonymous, have you begun drinking already on New Year's Eve? Please stay off the roads tonight. I'd hate to lose you in a traffic accident. You help to entertain our readers!
Dick Schaefer
If CNL would set the record straight when they found out the rest of a story their readers would be better served. The real story would have been a lot better and might get more people to help friends and people in need. Happy New Year from Cletus and Fred
ReplyDeleteDick and his many persona's here, fail to admit he is exactly what he decries!! Dick you are just as "in the tank" as you claim Noedel and CNL to be....look in the Mirror pal,you are who you hate! Just the flipside of a group. Let's try a simple re-write here...
ReplyDelete"Dick is a disruptive influence in our small community. Dick Schaefer is a sniveling muckraker and excrement agitator! Dick Schaefer holds petty grudges and misuses his so-called "news" website to intentionally mischaracterize the motives, intents and objectives of certain individuals with whom he disagrees," Further, you say
"Mr. Noedel, you have burnt and you are burning many bridges in the Hermann community. It's time for you to move on."
Dick, Dick, Dick!!! Funny it's only you and a few burnouts you have here that say that! I do not see any large group of people making those statements. You want a guy who points out what is really happening, to go away! You want the spotlight off of your pal, Penning? Why do you have such a special interest in protecting Penning? He cannot do it on his own? You talk as though you have a large following, yet we do not see anyone!! It's all a fantasy! Well, the world we live in, is reality based! You need to get some help, and not from that made up Alfred Character you wrote fantasy interviews about!
The Voters no not side with you, the law and Courts do not side with you, and the vast majority of people do not side with you. You and your few followers, are the outcast oddballs, who for some strange reason, think you should control the Majority! That's not how it works in America. The Democrats tried this, and got put out to Pasture the election just past... and I think this time around, your heroes in Hermann, and the County Commission will meet the same fate....when the Smart folks see the loons and goons for who they are, they boot them. Stand by Dick, for yet another reality check coming your way soon.
Mentally, you're in need of help!!!
Dick, every time you bash a guy like Noedel here, you are in reality, talking about yourself! All the attributes you so feverishly write and throw at him and others, is really YOU! Ha Ha Ha... look in the mirror, take your meds, and Wake the heck up!
Every rant you write like this one, just convinces the rest of us, the Majority of Countians and Hermann folk, what a messed up person you are! Happy New Year, Richard... do yourself a favor, get help.
We already know about your little reality check maybe you should stand face to face with some of the oddballs and see how that works for you. Afraid you might have to admit to a little lie...
ReplyDeleteAt least when i make a comment, I try to be clear and make my points.... you say...
ReplyDelete"Afraid you might have to admit to a little lie"...
then never say what the heck you are talking about! What lie? I see noting I have said that's untrue. Want more proof Dick is an attack dog for Penning? read the Current lead post he made about the Trapper Grill closing!! Dick never quits...
oh by the way, you talk of face to face, but I see you don't tell us who you are, right? Nice try Dick... Ha Ha Ha..
A. Nonymous,
ReplyDeleteI am putting up with your lunatic rantings because you entertain me. Just be careful to avoid the use of profane language and personal attacks against our readers when you make comments. If your violate either of these conditions, your comments will not be published.
I am also getting tired of your attacks against my part-time contributing writer, Dick Schaefer. I've asked Dick if we should begin denying your comments. He has asked me to continue publishing your comments for the time being. You see, he believes in Freedom of Speech, and he believes the best way to fight lies and mischaracterizations is by publishing the facts and the truth.
