Catherine Nope wrong again. No one privately told me anything. That is so typical of you just to make things up . I guess you don’t like being held accountable for your bias , inaccurate , and sloppy journalism. You are dishonest and unethical. I have a long list of the things you have done. You actually involved yourself in illegal activity  by writing articles to cover up a public official  who was no longer eligible to serve on a public board but illegally presented as legal. You use your media outlet to bully people  . Someone needs to call out ValleyVoice when it publishes substandard article , especially when you unfairly target people just because you feel like it  . People are actually sick of what you do . You took a paper with a good reputation and ruined it . Why don’t you answer some questions. Why didn’t you call Clara Bernardo to get clarification on the story you retracted because it was completely false? Why did you have Alexandria Feller call the cemetery office and lie to the cemetery staff ? You know the cemetery office has caller ID , Her number was confirmed. Experts in Journalism say what you did is highly unethical . Do you care to answer these questions?</description>

		<description>You know when you see comments from one particular person that are novels? Isn’t the first thing that crosses your mind is that the person is crazy?

Just to let you know, Xavier’s comments on this thread are almost three times longer than the story itself, and that is commonplace for Xavier. Whenever we publish a story that in some way involves Xavier I just sit back and wait for the crazy, obsessive rants to roll out - and he never disappoints. Guess I’ll have to keep counting too after he reads this comment, because Xavier can never, never not respond.

No wonder someone finally privately told Xavier to quit the trolling and bullying on facebook.</description>

The healthcare district has  no authority to investigate this issue. We do not operate the Hospital. We lease it to Adventist Health. However like I already said . I posted my number to Eddie M and offered assistance to contact the appropriate person at AH . The ball is in his court . I’m confident AH will take care of it but if the patient refuses to contact AH then what can they do ? Dr Kuar’s statement speaks for itself.</description>

		<description>Xavier, your right to speak as a private citizen doesn’t exist while you serve a on a public entity.   I feel sorry for you, I truly do.   
You want to continue to make accusations against me, feel free.  You have -0-effect on me.
Please just do your job as a board member and bring this up at the next board meeting.    
I wouldn’t want to listen to you ramble on the phone for an hour and I wouldn’t wish it on these people having the problems make the same mistake.</description>

No Barbara I see your comments all over Facebook arguing with people. Does that mean you are a narcissist seeking attention  too <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f602.png" alt="😂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> ?  I’m holding people accountable.  How is that bad ? Sure arguments are negative but this town suffered from bad people getting control of our hospital. The sad thing is the small group of people speaking up against the takeover were attacked too . It wasn’t until things got really bad that others started waking up . I still remember some people attacking me when I join that small group . They told me that those people were just seeking attention  but now we know the rest of the story. People seeking  negative attention do  bad things not good .  So you tell me , what have I done wrong ? What damage have I done ? what lies have I told ? What laws have I broken ?</description>

Lisa the one thing I&#039;ll say about Xavier is that he stays true to form. He loves attention, good and bad.  <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f606.png" alt="😆" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />  As for the hospital is concerned as a property owner I pay taxes on the hospital and as someone who has lived here the majority of my 75 plus years I have counted on its services from time to time for me and for family and friends. Of course most if not all Tulare and want the hospital to be all that it can be (regardless of you know who&#039;s narcissistic accusations to the contrary).  I appreciate Adventist Health taking over our failed hospital and hope they listen to Anonymous&#039;s perceptions on their experiences garnered there while in their hospitall&#039;s care. If they need to be upping their game then hopefully they will do so. Paint and a little deco goes a long ways. If their maintenance guys can&#039;t fix the cooling and heating units they should call Morris Levin &#038; Son or some other outside service to get it fixed. All in all if there are problems that affect patient care Adventist can&#039;t fixed them if they aren&#039;t made aware of them.  This article brings that awareness front and center. The ball is now in their court. I believe they will listen and act on improving what they can. At least I am hoping so.</description>

Lisa ,No it isn’t my job but I gave  Eddie M my number if he needs  help getting a hold of the right person to speak with . Also I’m speaking as a private citizen not a board member .  There is no commenters . There is just Barbara and yourself and like her you just want me to be silent.  Barbara wants to protect the ValleyVoice from being held accountable and you  hate Adventist Health. I’m not going to tell you who you can hate or like . That’s your right but you don’t have a right to spread lies to the community. A few months ago you made a comment on Facebook that Tulare didn’t have an ICU . After someone corrected you . You deleted your comment . The thing is you never should have said something if it wasn’t true . The same goes for the ValleyVoice.</description>

		<description>No Xavier, it’s just about seeing your name in print.   People are so over it.   The commenters are right.  Why doesn’t any other board member speak up?? Do you go on and on just to see that you are in print?    Get back to the original story and investigate these complaints, isn’t that your job???!</description>
