Critique on San Antonio Express News on ‘‘Wolff, Rodriguez deserve re-election to Commissioners Court’’

This article  ‘‘Wolff, Rodriguez deserve re-election to Commissioners Court,’’ in the San Antonio Express News by the Express News editorial board  is on the subject of the recent nominations on who should be elected or re-elected to Commissioners court in Precinct one and three respectively. The article starts with a suggestive heading, ‘‘Wolff, Rodriguez deserve re-election to Commissioners Court’’ (San Antonio Express News), by this type of heading, the editorial board points out that these nominees deserves to be re-elected back to the Commissioners Court.

The editorial board objectively suggests that Kevin Wolff should be given a third term in Precinct three and Sergio Rodriguez a fourth term in Precinct one. The editors argue that Wolff is knowledgeable and thoughtful on all matters of the state and the local government. They praise him for being honest and transparent. The editorial board endorses Wolff even after being caught in bizarre incidents.

On the other hand Wolff is being challenged by Brandon J. Johnson, a nineteen year old sophomore from the University of Texas at San Antonio (San Antonio Express News), but the editors of this article suggests that he is better off as an intern than a commissioner of which I disagree and think he would be better than Wolff because he is young, fresh, has new ideas and has never had a bad reputation unlike Wolff.

Rodriguez has no negative issues as observed from this article; the editors apprise him of his good work and recommend him back to the Commissioners Court although he is challenged by John V. Garza.

Overall the authors of the article have kept the facts straight but could have not recommended which candidates should be sent to the Commissioner’s office but should have left the recommendations open.
