The Future of Lakewood

They aren't plagiarizing because it was posted to Facebook by the guy himself. They *should* give credit to the Scoop (I believe) for discovering, which I saw many news articles did, probably no frum ones though.

Maybe plagiarizing isn't the right term, but journalists have been fired for not crediting the outlet that broke a story.

In the world of Jewish reporting, almost every outlet gets leads from other outlets, and reports it without crediting them. The good ones then contact their own sources to get the actual information, while the junky ones just rewrite what was already posted online.

Typical Lakewood Shoper Drivel. The board is legally not allowed to consider radiation and if it did it would be reversed by the courts as has happened numerous times in NJ.

“Both the New Jersey Radiation Protection Act and the TCA prohibit the Board from considering the long-term health effects of EMF radiation, so long as those emissions comply with applicable regulations. See N.J.S.A. 26:2D-17; 47 U.S.C.A. § 332(c)(7)(B)(iv); Smart, 152 N.J. at 326, 333-34, 704 A.2d 1271.“

Is easy to rabble rouse when you take liberty with the facts.

A cell phone tower is what bothers them? We have accidents every single day and nissim that there are not more fatalities and that is something the zoning board is partially to blame for. A cell phone tower ain't hurting anybody, especially not anywhere near the numbers the congestion and dumb planning in this town is.

may be true but most roads are county or state (that's what we hear all the time), i guess cell phone towers are not

From the Yated this week. Burstyn is one of the owners of the Shopper, IINM.





IMO, safety is an issue. Just because the 30-year-old FCC guidelines allow it, doesn't mean you want it across the street from your house. On the flip side, it's possible that the board was mandated to approve it, as I think they claimed they were.
