Ah, nothing like complete disclosure.
You are a mind blower KING. You ROCK. Those damn wankers with keyboards accessing public records.
How dare you expose Ladd the JournoFraud as a federal tax dodger.
Looks to me that Ladd hasn't gotten the message that when the IRS communicates a fierce urgency of now that they mean exactly that.
Oh My! Now who's the kettle and who's the pot?
How in the Hell does she expect a cradle to grave Nanny State to exist if she's not paying her taxes?
I'm sure there will be some incoming rounds on your location shortly.
meaning?
Activate invisible shield Kingfish! The Wrath of Ladd is about to descend upon you.
He means she's gonna KILL you Fish!
by the way, I have slapped the clarion ledger around a few times this week so don't accuse me of picking on them.
My question is what is going on over there.
Incoming rounds? Well, you know you're over the target when you start taking flak, right?
Having actually paid all of my taxes my entire life, can someone explain what would happen next to the Glorious Leader, if they fail to settle their debt with the IRS?
Maybe Ladd should contact P.L. Blake? He seems to have some spending cash laying around to help the FOD (Friends of Dickie) in their times of need. Lord knows Dickie could use some gullible member of the press to advance his claim of being framed. Maybe Jim Hood could be her go-between?

You seem to forget. You ain't doing some legal things yourself.
One day someone is going to knock your block off.
And shepherds we shall be....
care to elaborate because I would love to know.
Ahhhh, Il Duce!
Great. We've got ourselves a cowboy.

Have you ever!!! considered contacting those people you are attempting to hurt, prior to creating such a blog?
Hurt? It's public information!
If the Clarion-Ledger had any tax issues, I'm sure the JFP would be the first to report on it. I don't see a problem with what 'Fish is doing here. It's not like this is Donna Ladd's personal tax information.
Besides, this does tie in with the question of whether ad-supported print media can be profitable. Donna's position has historically been that ad-supported media (like the JFP) are viable, while subscription-supported media (like the Advocate and Link) are less viable. If the JFP is having tax issues, that's relevant information for people who are thinking of getting into the newspaper business and trying to decide between ad- and subscription-based media.
The threats to Kingfish make it look as if the JFP is going out of her way to hide this information, and I assume they aren't. I'd like to think that if anyone asked Donna about the tax liens, she'd be open and honest about them. Certainly that approach--corporate transparency--is something that she's always advocated.
You better watch your six Fish, these threats seem sincere. You never know, the JFP Artist in Residence may paint your portrait in a very unflattering light! These people are dangerous!
OMG they might fork his yard!
as for the CL, she didn't mind trashing them for cutting out Christmas bonuses, making employees pay for coffee, the publisher getting hardwood floors installed, trashing a fairly new young reporter Leah Rupp this week, and posting every other unflattering detail that goes on over there. If they had a tax issue, she would make it a whole story and have more than a few comments about it.
I wasn't trying to be a cowboy! I made the shepherds comment, and I was saying it in reference of the thinly veiled threat. We got your back Fish.
All of the tax info is public record right? No one, especially Donna should be upset with "public" information coming to light. That is why if you live in glass houses you shouldn't throw stones!

What goes around comes around.
Never say this or that will happen to me. Just as soon as you do, one day it will happen. Age and maturity teaches us this.
Trust me. This will all come back to haunt you. I truly hope you are not planning on obtaining anyone to advertise on your site. You are NOT!!!! a good business man. I would not even dare to do business with you.
You are too quick to judge, this will come back on you one day.
I know. the cowboy reference was to Boondock Saints because the poster said II Duce.
I'm Wyatt F'n Earp!!! hehe.
What a weirdo up there "what goes around comes around". Did they forget their meds today?
Since when is a peronsal blog a business? LMAO.
judge? Who judged? Did I offer any opinion whatsoever?
I have no idea what is going on over there. None whatsoever and know better than to speculate.
There are alot of bloggers in Mississippi being cursed this week.
Let's not be too myopic here, Anonymous that will never do business with Fish...
What if, just what if, this is the "Coming Around" to the Glorious Leader's "What Goes Around?"
She's been hucking a ton of stones from inside that glass house of hers. Besides, Fish may not be the best business man, but I would say he's a shade better than the person responsible for paying the JFP's taxes.
"Trust me. This will all come back to haunt you"
You mean exposing public information? Are you kidding me?
Fish, seems like you've struck a nerve!
The Wanna-Be is upset. Give her some love. Pray for her. Perhaps she'll see the light.
I'm scared. What if this comes around?
I wonder who the JFP's investors are? Hmmmmm.

It appears that jealousy flows through every vein of your body.
"It appears that jealousy flows through every vein of your body."
No, that would be alcohol. LMAO
Why would he be jealous of a tax lien? LOL
jealous?
HOW?
yup. alcohol. Usually its Dynamite Cabernet, Patz & Hall Pinot or Los Cardos Cabernet, Gentleman Jack or Silver Creek WHiskey, or Spaten Optimator Beer.
The TAX LIEN is because she made GEORGE W. BUSH mad by EXPOSING his LIES.
You people don't know squat about the IRS.
If the IRS was having ANY!!! trouble with Jackson Free Press, they would have seized EVERYTHING!!! immediately once there was a problem.
"If the IRS was having ANY!!! trouble with Jackson Free Press, they would have seized EVERYTHING!!! immediately once there was a problem."
Nope. Try again.

Has it EVER!!! crossed your mind that perhaps the web site is not up to date? This all seems "ONE SIDED" to me.
If you wanted to be a fair person/business man, you would have contacted JFP for a statement. By the way, nothing has been posted regarding this issue from JFP.
"SO!!!!!!! BE FAIR"
You are absolutely right and thank you for posting that little reminder about the basic facts of "factchecking" and journalism.
No one wants to see someone slandered or unfairly maligned. Lies will not be tolerated here.
Having said that, everything on the website has been verified with another agency as being current.
I'm sure the JFP has a team of crack journalists on this story and will give a detailed report next issue....
See Donna, I told you. Taxes suck. This is what happens though. You want everyone to have healthcare, right? How many people are going without it because you couldn't pay your taxes? I know, that's harsh. But, "It is what it is." I just have this fierce urgency of now, because without your tax money, who is going to pay for little Timmy to get his healthcare he's entitled to?
I feel sad for little Timmy......

You have not posted anything about who you have contacted regarding the accuracy of any of this.
Sure would make you look more credible if you posted a statement from JFP.
I have copies of the liens that came from the Hinds County Chancery Court this morning and are stamped certified. I would say that is pretty concrete.
Like the story about the Prudential case that was so balanced? Didn't see any interviews with the other side's lawyers in that one.
What about a statement from JFP?
Are you to ashamed to offer them a courtesy call???
Damn, looks like somebody turned on the lights in Plato's Cave.
C'mon Fish, squash all dissent with talk of ad hominyms, violation of the user agreement, something, tolerate no difference of opinion...call me a Troll, a rascist, something!
If y'all are taking up a collection for Timmy then let me know. It is so terribly sad that his future has been so jeopardized because Ladd is skipping out on paying her fair share for Timmy's medical care.
Don't forget memes and the wps.
"I know the slander campaign you mean. And it is. There are things being sent around in those e-mails that are half-truths at best, inaccurate at worst, and all without anyone ever calling to ask us one single thing."
Are the JFP's unpaid taxes inaccurate half-truths?

Bo:
Not going to do it. The Voltaire Free Speech Society is alive and well here at JJ.
You see free speech alot more on this site than you do on others.
By the way, the threats don't get zapped. I enjoy leaving those up.
Ah, the laments from the Glorious Leader. It would appear that in her world, Snide Goeth Before the Fall.
At this rate, I'll never win a "Best of" from the JFP.
And the winner for Best of Jackson 2008 Tax Dodge is the Jackson Free Press.
Last anonymous, do we laugh now? Why do all of the guys have who posted in this thread seem desperate to me?
DONNA LADD is NOT despirate she is a GREAT LEADER of the CREATIVE CLASS.
"Anonymous said...

Desperate? It's called humor and sarcasm. Quite a welcome diversion from all the Scruggsiana antics.
If you can't stand the heat, get outta the kitchen, or off the blogs and websites.
Just an update folks. Little Timmy has taken a turn for the worse. Not only has his health deteriorated, but the white power structure came by and left a flaming bag of 'poo on his doorstep.
something gots to be did about this.
Gee, why hasn't Ladd answered this JFP blogger? Could it be that Ladd is exaggerating again? Would be so easy for her to clear the air on her blog, wouldn't it? And, really, she should do it on her blog just like she told Stu Rockoff to communicate on the blog or not at all. Remember that Ladd?

She deleted hmg's post. Pretty much proves that she's deliberately hiding this information from prospective advertisers. Get Yallpolitics on it.
Just noticed King that someone linked to your post over at the C-L forums.
Rico, shoot me an email. thanks.
