I have been out of the office a few days, and in the course of catching up on my reading. I came across the July 14th "master" 144-page issue of Credit Union Times. All I can say is the accolades that the Credit Union Times editorial team earn from its readership are so well deserved. I suppose I think of Credit Union Times as I do the Fox News Channel.fair and balanced reporting. The publication is, indeed, well respected and provocative. It can tell it like it is… saying things, at times that some CEOs, directors, league or association leaders might like to say, but dare not. I know, too, that Credit Union Times is a great source of education and information for a wide spectrum of readers. Of course, many of us disagree with some of the perspectives Mike Welch takes in his publisher's columns at times. If we did not, that would be pretty boring! And he knows how and when to "push our buttons" for the right reasons and for that, I believe, we are the better as a result. Keep up the good work.
