I’m aware of the personal attacks against Alexandria Goddard aka Prinnie and while I fully understand the mindset, opinions and emotions behind them – they are misguided.
Prinnie, as she is known to me, is the face and voice of many. I know how blogging works and I know without a doubt she is being given information of much concern from locals who are fed up with the culture and environment they have been living in. I refer to Steubenville, Ohio of course, but to attack her for bringing forth information and woes of local citizens fed up with life at the middle and bottom of Steubenville’s social, economic, educational and legal culture just misses the mark.
To those attacking on twitter and elsewhere – your problem is much bigger than Prinnie… your problem is within and you need to look at it and consider addressing it if you want Steubenville to return to the normalcy you say you want. Keep in mind the new normal headed Steubenville’s way may not be the normal you and many have grown comfortable with.
Steubenville will have problems following this huge blowup. Trust and acceptance there will never be what you have known. The cat is out of the bag, so to speak, and suspicions will linger for more than the present generation.
Those who live in a comfort zone, thanks to a high school football program and other status measurements, will long for the good old days and they will fight for it. Those who live outside of that zone will continue to cry out for change. It’s a very human story of struggle for equality and fairness! How it all ends up is anyone’s guess, but things in Steubenville will never be the same as they have been and people need to adjust to that and stop laying the blame on an outside blogger who merely gives voice and provides a face to those who fear to speak out or feel they wouldn’t be heard.
Your problem is much bigger than a blogger on the internet. Convince yourselves, foolishly and wrongly, you are only and merely dealing with some blogger’s personal vendetta and that’s equal to sticking your head in the sand. Don’t do it. Do better. Be smarter. Be bigger.
Well said and so true. Ive even read on other less credible blogs *cough hack gag* (bbs) she bullied me into coming to “her side” which is funny because it just didnt happen that way. Prinnie actually was the bigger person, and after realizing she had been mislead in that regard.. she apologized.. as did I. That to me speaks volumes to her character.
Haters gonna hate .. and they are just hating now because SHE is getting the national attention they so desperately want.
The blog you speak of is a hang out for all the “sprayed roaches”….
Executioner used that term in a comment and it cracked me up. Funnies On Friday! LOL!
LMAO!! I like it “sprayed roaches” Ha Ha Ha
Had it not been for Prinnie’s blogs this would have been another case of Stupidville covering up another crime. Who better to expose the dirty laundry than a schooled, educated, local woman?
Is there someone new attacking Prinnie or is it the same people who have been pointing the finger at her since August? She need not worry about what they have to say if it is still the same people. The facts are simple, Prinnie didn’t allege anyone did anything, all she did was re-post already public posts that were posted that night. Those boys’ social media accounts were not private they were public so their respective posts were already in the public domain. She did nothing illegal, nothing wrong. She did what was the right thing to do. The people here deserve to know the truth, deserve to know what it going on in there own town. Let’s think about this, had the people here been getting all the information from local News then the need to turn to Prinnie’s blog wouldn’t of been there in the first place. I’m not blaming local media, the case may be that they weren’t aware of the online posts from that night and I’m sure Law enforcement isn’t in the habit of releasing ALL information that early in the investigative phase however the information was out there in the public domain therefor we do have a right know. I for one thank Prinnie for standing up for this victim.
Hey Radio you got a mention on Joey Ortega’s show last night. He had on Walter Madison, Malik Richmond’s attorney. There were only 10 pople in his chat but he was telling Walter he has thousands of listeners weekly. 10 Listeners and 2 of them were Joey’s name all of a sudden equates to thousands LOL
Yeah go listen to him after Walter leaves around the 1 hour mark then the next hour he and Bitch blasting Prin, Anon, you etc. Oh he also tried to get Walter to agree with him in saying Anon and Bloggers are causing his client to have an unfair trial. Walter didn’t agree but instead said at the end of the day, he and anonymous were a lot a like and that he really applauds them LOL His new lapdog was furious and tried to tell Walter he said something on a CNN interview regarding anonymous and he adamantly said he never said such a thing. She got slapped down and put in her place. It was priceless!
Walter asks for questions from callers but guess what….. THERE WERE NO CALLS!!! LOL So he left. Then Joey and Bitch went on and on and on about Prin, You, Anon etc. It was so sad and pathetic to listen to them. Yet all the while Joey claimed to not wanting a fight etc.
Oh and it was funny listening to him tell Walter how bloggers were claiming corruption and creating lies. Who was it making “relational mind map”? JOEY! Who was the one spending weeks talking about Abdalla, Hanlin, Bucisk, Bruzzese? JOEY! One only has to look at Joey’s blog and tweets especially the day of the first rally, to see who fed Local leaks all the false information…

What’s funny is, who is the one crying on their blog and radio show? JOEY! And who is the one not mentioning one word about it and staying classy? PRIN! Obviously he has serious jealousy issues with Prin. He ends up looking pathetic. Stay classy Prin! Stay Classy!!!
