Cutbacks Have New Camden Fire Chief Worried

| courierpostonline.com | Courier-Post

by Lucas K. Murray

The loss of units means Camden has relied more on mutual aid service from volunteer departments outside the city. The only other all-career staffed department nearby is Gloucester City, which laid off firefighters of its own last year. 

On Monday, city spokesman Robert Corrales said negotiations between the city and unions representing its workers remained unchanged.

Last week, Trenton requested and was granted an extension to its layoff proposal from the state Civil Service Commission. In the state capital, 61 fire department employees are slated to be laid off Feb. 7.

The extension is meant to keep as many firefighters for as long as possible, officials said, as the city waits on the status of a federal grant meant to offset some firefighter salaries.

Three fire stations in Trenton are in danger of closing as a result of the layoffs. Only one municipality in New Jersey was awarded a SAFER grant through FEMA in 2010.

‘Entertainment’ Media Join Chorus Blaming Conservatives for Shooting


Gossip, entertainment, lifestyle outlets join mainstream media smearing rights.

by Matt Philbin & Erin R. Brown, Culture and Media Institute

It was no less depressing for being predictable. News of the horrendous Jan. 8 shooting of Democratic Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and 17 others had just broken when some on the left were exploiting it to malign conservatives.

Yet the left has blamed the \”vitriolic\” rhetoric of conservatives and the Tea Parties as inciting violence. The mainstream media has enabled and even joined liberals in tarring the right with inciting political violence, right down to the gossip, entertainment and \”lifestyle\” outlets.

Whether it’s \”TMZ\” polling readers with a leading questionnaire, \”The
