Not quite as good a deal as the former football coach at K-State..
Yep. Next on the chopping block is Queen Mary Easley herself...
wow.
Another Democratic crook. Easley is a dirty word in NC.
I want (W)Easley. I want his head on the chopping block.
After the DukeLax Frame, I want the entire North Carolina Politcal/Legal axis to suffer. And suffer a lot.
Good.
Drip ... drip ... drip.
Is that the entire article?
Guess it time, once again, to play “Name That Party” in media coverage!
Ditto that...NC has become the NJ of the south.
As you know, being in Raleigh, but as others on this thread may not know, both Oblinger and UNC System President Erskine Bowles (former Clinton Cabinet member and two-time U.S. Senate election loser) have "asked" Mrs. Easley to resign. She is waging a fight through her attorney (Queen Mary herself does not deign to speak on the matter) to keep her job. Or at least, that's the public story. I suspect negotiations for a contract buyout (read: big golden parachute) are ongoing. All of the "resignations" (firings) are reducing whatever leverage Mrs. Easley might have had.
What continues to baffle me is the fact that Bowles continues to get a pass in the press and in the State Legislature. Clearly he was complicit in the decision to hire Mrs. Easley, and to grossly inflate her taxpayer-funded paycheck, back when hubby was Gov.
All roads lead to Durham...
Not to restate the obvious or have a moment that would cause someone to inference feces and a certain fictional british detective by the name of Holmes....
However,
Can anyone find party affiliation ..anywhere...?
Easley....mrs easley.....anything?
Raleigh is scum...NC is scum
Ruh Roh!!

Media Sue Easley Over Public Records
Carolina Journal and nine other media members join in the lawsuit

RALEIGH — Carolina Journal and nine other North Carolina news organizations filed a civil lawsuit against Gov. Mike Easley on Monday, claiming multiple and “systematic” violations of the N.C. Public Records Law.
The plaintiffs asked a judge to “enter a judgment declaring that policies and procedures promulgated and implemented on behalf of the defendant [Easley] and the actions taken by him as alleged … violate the Public Records Law,” according to the complaint filed in Wake County Superior Court.
Joining CJ in the complaint were The News & Observer of Raleigh, The Charlotte Observer, The Fayetteville Observer, The Associated Press, and the N.C. Press Association. Other plaintiffs were: Media General Operations, which publishes 10 N.C. newspapers, including the Winston-Salem Journal; Freedom Communications and Freedom Eastern North Carolina Communications, which together publish seven N.C. newspapers; The Wilson Daily Times; and Boney Publishers, which publishes The Alamance News.
“Our position is that the policies of the governor and of those who act at his direction or under his authority violate the Public Records Law as it relates to retention of documents — in this case, most frequently e-mail documents — but other documents as well,” said Amanda Martin, one of the plaintiffs’ lawyers.
The suit contends Easley and his staff violated the state’s Public Records Law by: mandating that certain e-mail records be destroyed, destroying at least one written document, devising e-mail retention policies that deviated from the law, and failing to provide for preservation of public records.
