I'm not a tv watcher, but my neighbor who gets all her news from the tv remarked to me that it hasn't been a bad fire year for Oregon! When I told her the acreage on fire or burnt, she nearly fainted. Had no idea.

I guess the media just isn't getting the seriousness of this out to people. This woman considers herself fairly well informed.

The left controlled media in Oregon knows how serious these fires have been to about half of Oregon's population.

That is why they have spiked the news about the fires, minimized the news or played down the seriousness.

A year ago in Portland, about 6 people, all Freepers, knew about the attempted Rural Cleansing of the Klamath Basin farmers and ranchers for a sucker fish. No one even knew about the protests by our people and the large numbers.

All the average Portland sheeple knew was that greedy farmers and ranchers in the Klamath Basin were killing innocent fish by wasting vast amounts of water for irrigation. Of course none of these little green weenies realized that if not for the farmers and ranchers raising food which used irrigation, they would not be able to buy the food they and their family needed each day to stay alive.
