"This is purely sensational journalism at best and reeks of personality issues rather than legitimate newsreporting. Shame on you Don Bauder! I thought you were better than this." Yes, shame on you Don for simply doing your job!! Give it a rest Daniel2. @ Surfpuppy.....you can bet the three names you listed are employees of the GLT or partners of them. My sense is they can feel the vultures hovering above ready to swoop down to feed on the carcasses and they are trying every last ditch effort to prevent this if they can. BYE BYE GLT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!— August 20, 2010 8:46 a.m.

Responce to post #22. Don you are probably correct however I if the DA or any law enforcement agency is made aware of possible criminal activity don't you agree they have an obligation to act and see if there is merit to it? Just as you pose the question as if you were supposed to ignore the suspension and not follow up to see if there was merit and act accordingly. I do not think there is as much of a witch hunt as some of the GLT camp would love the public to believe. GLT would do anything to take the attention from the allegations of the fraud and possible other alleged illegal activites. It seems Mike Portantino has made lots of enemies over the years. I'm surprised it has taken this long for some type of investigation to take place. The alleged activities have been heard about for years prior but it seems people finally may have had their fill and are now pushing something to be done about it. If that includes law enforcement needing to be involved for alleged criminal activity then so be it. As the GLT said when they publicly called out Auntie Helen's..."FRAUD IS FRAUD" http://www.gaylesbiantimes.com/?id=16641— August 19, 2010 9:25 p.m.

@ ClayinNP... Ruff Ruff!!!! Sounds like I hit a nerve perhaps? You must know first hand of the rumor being told that Todd Klein is Mike Portantino's puppet or lap dog. btw..You could not handle who has been sitting on my lap or what they get when they sit there but I suspect you are one of those boys that sure would like to try! Also what kind of idiot are you, do you not realize these kinds of records are "Public Record" as surfpup said. And the million dollar question 'newsfollower11' is not who provided these records to Don but why are such a stupid person to think Don is not seasoned enough in his career that he knows how to find and get the facts for himself. Again all this is public record. Do you not think Don would be following up to see how all this original story unfolds as lawsuits and who knows what else may follow...like possible jail time for employees of the GLT. Yes yes cry all you like that not enough news coverage is in the world about equal rights. I think plenty is being covered on a continus basis but we also need to stay on top of the scumbags of the world that try and gain a foot hold on the backs of others like alledgeldy Mike Portantio does or how he allegedly uses people to gain what he needs and then tosses them to the side to find the next person he can try and allegedly manipulate. From the original storys and word on the street sounds like pretty much everything that has been covered thus far might be the truth. I guess all will be told once the DA finishes their investigation.— August 19, 2010 7:48 p.m.

Why is it singling out the Gay and Lesbian Times?? I think it’s great that Don is on the ball keeping the reading public up to date on anything new that comes from this previous story. That is real journalism at its best!!!!!— August 19, 2010 2:42 p.m.
