After reading the article I've come to the conclusion that I couldn't care less about either party.  I understand that Dietz' business potentially suffered $300,000 in losses, and I understand that Perez had to spend thousands of dollars to get the work done over, but what I do not understand is why the news thinks this is a good article to post.  Sure, the First Amendment is important and we should all understand our rights, but stop posting mainly negative things for once, just to stir the pot.  Also, as a veteran myself, I think it's unfair for the paper to mention that Perez was a former Captain in the military.  They are trying to use that to make her look better and more likable, even though it has absolutely no place in the story.  This is one of the many reasons why the news sucks.
