Tux sucks wind, once more.

Nothing but the revealed truth for Portland Press Herald's Tux Turkel,when it comes to the reworked plan by ex governor Angus King to plaster yet another scenic Maine mountain ridge with what will certainly be  poorly producing, subsidy-dependent  eyesores.

In his article Builder reduces impact of Highland Wind plan.   Tux swallows the King's public relations noise as glibly as a raw oyster, and pronounces it Good:
"The developer of a controversial wind farm proposed for Somerset County has redesigned the project to benefit residents and reduce visual impacts on the Appalachian Trail and the Bigelow Preserve."

Note he didn't write: "The developer of a controversial wind farm proposed for Somerset County SAYS THAT HE has redesigned the project to benefit residents and reduce visual impacts on the Appalachian Trail and the Bigelow Preserve."

Nope. If it comes from the King, it's gotta be so, in Turkel's star-struck eyes.
