Upfront, I must acknowledge that I do not have any feelings or knowledge of the candidates in the various judicial races. But, I have to comment about one particularly negativre TV ad criticizing one of the challengers without mentioning the other's name. I have no opinion about which of either is the best choice.
Some 40 years ago when Lee Dreyfus taught my media class at the University of Wisconsin, he challenged us to question any and all advertisements and ask for proof of the "puff" or the "substance" of what was being proffered.
Ask for proof! If a commercial states a "fact" , then there should be some substance behind it for proof.
If a political commercial states that any candidate is has "over x percent" of his rulings overturned, there should be some easily addressable reference to the source.
Watch the bobblehead judge commercial. Evaluate it. And then ask, where is the proof?
