Michigan’s chickens are coming home to roost.

Did you see this story from Michigan Capitol Confidential this morning?

Media Resoundingly Rejects Prop 2, Prop 4 Only two weekly newspapers support either of the union-backed plans to alter the state constitution

Nick De Leeuw, spokesman for Citizens Protecting Michigan’s Constitution, a group opposed to proposals that would amend the state constitution, said he’s been tracking newspaper endorsements through Nov. 2 and confirms the lack of support.

The Traverse City Record-Eagle, the Herald-Palladium, The Grand Rapids Press, Kalamazoo Gazette, Flint Journal, Bay City Times, Muskegon Chronicle, Saginaw News, Jackson Citizen Patriot, Detroit Free Press, Adrian Daily Telegram, Huron Daily Tribune, Petoskey News, Midland Daily News, Holland Sentinel, Detroit News, Sturgis Journal, Livingston Daily County Press & Argus, Lansing State Journal, Soo Evening News, Battle Creek Enquirer, Greenville Daily News, Mt. Pleasant Morning Sun, Southgate News Herald, Southgate Press and Guide, The Ile Camera, The Guardian, Ann Arbor Journal, Milan News-Leader and Saline Reporter, Chelsea Standard and Dexter Leader, Manchester Enterprise, Ypsilanti Courier, Saline View, Ionia Sentinel-Standard and Crain’s Detroit Business have all come out against Proposal 2.

De Leeuw said the Lansing City Pulse and the Michigan Chronicle were the only weeklies to support Prop 2.


SLAP!
