Hack
In the current Yes! Weekly, Charles Davenport Jr. writes a letter calling out Editor Brian Clarey for Clarey's recent political opinion piece (unposted). Davenport repeatedly claims that Clarey's column is full of factual errors. This might be funny if it were not so sad.
Davenport writes a weekly conservative opinion column for the News & Record, and his credibility for sorting fact from fiction is more than suspect. He recently reminded readers of his own blindness to the truth by leading a column with a bogus quote from Thomas Jefferson. The quote had been discredited a week earlier on the same pages where Davenport's column appeared.
Congratulations, Charles. You have proven yourself as a hack in two local publications.
