[Verginius Rufus]

Hannity was in Huron, CA. It may be about 35 miles from Selma, but VDH's point is that it's the western side of the valley which is being hurt by the cut-off. Huron is near I-5. Selma is on the eastern side of the valley on Hwy. 99.

VDH also makes it sound like a smaller number of acres are being left dry (his figure is half what Hannity was saying).

I was born in Selma and grew up in Pixley. I am well aware of where Selma and Huron are. My point is so does Hanson. Watching Hannity’s show leaves the impression that the entire valley is being cut off and Hanson just points out that that is not the case. I don’t know what LGF means, but I think VDH wrote a balanced piece here.
