Appellate Judge Charles Schudson accuses Shepherd Express of printing an error-riddled, disinformation and attack article to support Schudson’s campaign opponent, Joan Kessler. Kessler’s husband is a close personal friend of Shepherd publisher, Louis Fortis. Fortis insists, “Other than the small items we corrected, that article is 100 percent factually correct.” Another recent article in the Shepherd falsely charged that mayoral candidate Sandy Folaron had overdue property taxes in excess of $7000. Fortis was on hand at the Folaron campaign on election night to express his apologies.
