Why Does Knox News Sentinel NOT Report Their Conflict?

When the Knoxville News Sentinel writes about a Bob Thomas possible Mayoral candidacy, why are they not disclosing a News Sentinel Executive’s conflict.

imageAccording to the voting record of Patrick Birmingham, the Publisher of the Knoxville News Sentinel he lives at a residence that according to the Knox Co Property Records is owned by Bob and Kim Simms Thomas.

Why is this not disclosed in news reports about a possible Mayoral candidacy of Birmingham’s landlord? Is Birmingham unaware who owns the residence where he lives? Has Birmingham failed to disclose this probable conflict to the paper and his Supervisors?

    Kns has always preached for metro gov. They think this is real opportunity to bring it about. This is one bell you cannot unring, just go ask Davidson county voters if they would unring if possible.
