  • Thorough Examination of Corruption

    Thank you for the courage and persistent energy and time it took to give us a picture of how political corruption was blatantly perpetrated on Ohio citizens. Still it is hard to be optimistic about how positive change can come about unless the system is changed for the better. Honest ethical commitment by politicians is sorely needed which I hope can happen. At least the WOSU news media has given us a look at the true condition of Ohio politics.
