"Hardin and Schlosser slandering Forest Oaks

Regarding the ongoing comparisons your reporters make between Forest Oaks and Sedgefield:Why is it necessary to continue your negative rhetoric about Forest Oaks? Sedgefield now has the PGA Tournament. Understandably, politics drove the move back to Sedgefield (just as politics drove it out of Sedgefield when that community became disgruntled with it).

What is this continued negative narrative regarding Forest Oaks? It is irresponsible reporting by Ed Hardin and Jim Schlosser. The slanderous harassment in the spring of this year left a bad taste in the mouths of volunteers who spent long hot, cold, wet or sunburned hours for the event that offered our city and county some of the best national coverage ever — and they did it year after year!

Forest Oaks Country Club hosted the tournament for almost 30 years, some good, some not so good.Our family has personally enjoyed 20 years of living in the chaos during this exciting sports event. If you have a personal vendetta then have at it, but leave the Forest Oaks homeowners out of it. If you want to prove yourselves as responsible reporters, then it is time to own up and offer a public apology."
