"Netcoh said that she hoped for a large turnout at tonight’s school committee meeting and that the newest mediation session would hopefully be scheduled as soon as possible."

Clearly this was published before Tuesday morning's announcement by Netcoh of a no-confidence vote in Thornton and Furtado: https://warwickpost.com/wtu-announces-no-confidence-vote-thornton-furtado/

So the WTU president has again used the Beacon to say one thing while doing another. This was the same person who said the union didn't vote on a sick-out, resulting in the Beacon reporting that the planned move had been "squashed" -- only for it to happen.

Netcoh also seems to be telegraphing the WTU's next stunt, which she says in her statement will be for union members to "let them know" about the vote. It should also be noted that she terms this vote "unanimous" without providing the number of teachers involved or the time and date of the vote.

Admittedly, I am hardly qualified to critique Mr. Howell's journalistic experience; however, after these two incidents, it may be time to review his paper's editorial processes when given information from the WTU.
