AP Item on Martinez's Inauguration in NM Notes 'Place in History,' Omits Status As Nation's First Latina Gov.

By Tom Blumer | January 02, 2011 | 11:35

Tom Blumer's picture

A brief January 1 item from the Associated Press's Barry Massey on the inauguration of Susana Martinez ("Martinez becomes NM gov as new year starts") began as follows:

Republican Susana Martinez has claimed her place in history as New Mexico's first female governor, taking office with the start of the new year.

If it weren't for the "place in history" part, I might have blown right by it without hesitation. But speaking of a "place in history," especially at a wire service that sometimes seems overly obsessed with race and racial milestones, it's more than a little odd that the AP dispatch failed to note what the AP's Jesse Washington reported on Election Night in November:

Minorities ride GOP wave to groundbreaking wins The Republican wave produced groundbreaking results for minority candidates, from Latina and Indian-American governors to a pair of black congressmen from the Deep South.

 

In New Mexico, Susana Martinez was elected as the nation's first female Hispanic governor. Nikki Haley, whose parents were born in India, will be the first woman governor in South Carolina, and Brian Sandoval became Nevada's first Hispanic governor.

Clearly, becoming the first Latina governor in the country is more significant for those who keep score of such things than becoming the first female governor of New Mexico. At a minimum, it's quite an oversight.

At a maximum, it may just be that someone at the AP does not appreciate the existence of a female Latina who appears to be a genuine conservative with growing star power. An LA Times item by Michael Haederle, containing the predicatble "you'd better not govern like a conservative" warnings, elaborates:

When she takes the oath of office Saturday morning in Santa Fe's historic plaza, Susana Martinez will become New Mexico's — and the nation's — first elected Latina governor.

 

The 51-year-old, four-term Doña Ana County district attorney is also a rising star in national Republican circles, already being mentioned in the blogosphere as a potential vice presidential candidate in 2012.

 

But as she takes over from Bill Richardson — a termed-out Democrat whose final two years in office were clouded by federal investigations into pay-for-play allegations — Martinez faces stiff challenges as New Mexico deals with a high unemployment rate and a hefty budget deficit.

 

"We have to start cutting back on the wasteful spending," Martinez said in a telephone interview last week as she drove to her hometown of Las Cruces. She wants to sell the state's $5.5-million jet, pare administrative costs in the education budget and put the state's generous film industry incentives under the microscope.

 

Martinez is also considering scaling back the Rail Runner Express commuter train service and is looking to privatize operations at Spaceport America, where Virgin Galactic soon hopes to launch suborbital space flights. She has also promised to reverse a policy of issuing driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants and to fight for reinstatement of the death penalty.

 

Each of these proposals could be seen as a repudiation of Richardson and his expansive approach to state government. "We're asking people to cut back and not spend as much, but government has not been able to do that," Martinez said.

 

... Voters were ready for a change, said state Democratic Chairman Javier Gonzales. But he warns that if Martinez hews too closely to a budget-slashing, tax-cutting agenda she will quickly alienate New Mexicans, many of whom rely on government-funded programs. "There is a real concern among the Democrats about how she is going to prioritize solving the state's problems," he said.

Later in the article, Haederle relays a story about how local Republicans invited Ms. Martinez and her husband to lunch to discuss political issues, after which they realized, "Oh my God, we are Republicans! Now what do we do?"

The ultimate to that question came Saturday. You can't help but wonder if Barry Massey or perhaps someone else at the AP decided that they didn't like how Susana Martinez answered that question, and determined that readers, viewers and listeners at the wire service's news, radio and TV outlets should not be made aware of "her place in history" as the nation's first Latina governor.

Or was this because she's an evil Republican?  I'd like to think New Mexico wised up, but it's way too early to say that.

Martinez Election

Submitted by driguana on Sun, 01/02/2011 - 12:24pm.

The election and inauguration of Susana Martinez yesterday in Santa Fe was truly amazing on a number of levels. First, the obvious fact that she is the first Latina governor in the state and the in the nation. That's an amazing accomplishment. What's ironic about that is the negative backlash from Hispanics in the state, especially in the northern part of NM. That, only because she is a Republican. But because of that, the second level of importance about her election is that many things will now be put "under the microscope". The film industry needs to be one of them. As someone deeply involved in that, having helped create the second only Media District in the country in Santa Fe, many of us realize the importance of this aspect of our economic development picture. We also understand how it can quickly benefit a chosen few. What the film business can do in New Mexico, if scripted and choreographed correctly, is rapidly become one of the most important pillars of our local economy, employing everyone from hairdressers to creative writers and artists. Now is the time to put it under scrutiny and make it work for all New Mexicans. Martinez has the opportunity to do that, and I believe she will take her moment on the stage to do that.

Live from Santa Fe.

Submitted by celator on Sun, 01/02/2011 - 1:03pm.

Tom..thanks for the watchdogging you are doing on the AP. These birds have become a rogue news agency over the last few years and it is a disgrace. Under their current managemnet they are nothing more than a trumpet for Obama and lefty policies in general.

Here in Maine, the AP recently ran a story on ObamaCare praising it to the heavens and mocking those who question the new health care catastrophe that is looking at us right in the face. The fact that Obama, Pelosi and Reid completely misrepresented the cost and impact of ObamaCare on people has STILL not been properly reported by the AP.

What the AP DIDN't report in that story is that Maine has had a similar care plan in place for the last ten years and it has been a failure. To pass the thing, the lefties in the  state legislature insisted there were 100,000 people in the state that "had no medical care because they weren't insured". It was an EMERGENCY, you see.

The bill passed and lo and behold it emerged that there were only about 6-9,000 people in the state who qualified for "MaineCare" after all. But they got their bill passed. AP, of course, forgot to cover that part of the stary. I can tell you 100 stories the AP has massaged, shaped and twisted in the state.

I got off track there a bit, but wanted to give examples of how AP is routingly misleading its readers in matters of national and local policy. Keep at these creeps, Tom.

Submitted by Tomorama on Sun, 01/02/2011 - 1:27pm.

I admit that I applaud maybe a little louder when a GOOD, QUALIFIED conservative thinking MINORITY wins office of any kind, it proves the point that we have a big tent and just because of someones skin tone does not qualify or disqualify in OUR party.

We VOTE for the ideas and not the skin hue as opposed to the 90 percent of geniuses that think Oblunder is doing so swell despite the joblessness at unseen levels among their own race.

West, Martinez, Rubio and others are championed at this address MORE by their views MORE than skin hue, but the fact that the Ass. Press can't add up Republican - Woman - Latino in a paragraph speaks volumes.

Make her a Democrat and she would be on every morning show and evening as well as a "trophy" of LOOK AT US.............

Sick of libs put it best - Imagine if she were a wise latina and not a "Republican".......

That's why I asked about Bill Richardson's race(his father was half-latino, mother was latina), there was no mention of it in the article, it was almost like they deliberately left it out.  You'd think they were afraid of being accused of a double standard.  Oh yeah, his last name isn't a Spanish one either.(Was it Loretta Sanchez who had her original last name changed to Sanchez so that she could "identify" more with the Hispanic votes in California?)

Yes, you are right about his family. I also believe he grew up in CA which is ironic since much was made about Gov Martinez growing up in TX....which is better? Much was made about Richardson being Hispanic from CA as a positive aspect but much denigration about Gov Martinez being Tex-Mex. Of course there is always the raging debate in these parts as to which is better and more deserving....Hispanic, Latin, Mexican, etc......it is not a "singular" cultural debate.

Another line in the LA times story reveals one of the debilitating diseases that has infected the Republic. The idea that the State Democratic chairman is waiting to see what Martinez will do for "hispanic issues". This garbage infuriates me! People are elected to serve their State/locality/Country, not those exclusive to their own damn skin color. The democrat chairman's statements only serve to reveal him as the partisan, racist douchebag I already suspected he was.

...cannot be a legitimate Latino minority, as she doesn't have the all-importtant "D" behind her name.

As the MSM sees it, minorities (people of color) are too inferior (as in stoopid) to make it here in America (an oppressive, racist nation) without billions of dollars of government assistance programs, and any member of the inferior classes (minorities) that does not see it that way doesn't deserve to breathe.

The left just doesn't like it when minorities run screaming from the plantation.

In a perfect world

"...AP Omits Gov. Susana Martinez's Status As Nation's First Latina Gov..."

The AP obviously doesn't like Brown people.

Bunch o' racists.

It's the only explanation.

Quick. Someone call La Racist to stage vociferous protests and right this wrong.

Seriously though, in a perfect world, her ethnicity would be a non-issue. The only real issue would be her expereince and qualifications to be an effective administrator.

It's not a perfect world, but in the world of adults - conservative adults - her ethnicity is a non-issue. For conservatives, the only real issue actually is her experience and qualifications to be an effective administrator. It's the childish progressives - and their sycophant stenographers in the MSM - who are the race pimps that continually make race a focal point, yet persistently tar conservatives as the racists.

Even in an imperfect world that's called hypocrisy.

So, when the AP Omits Gov. Susana Martinez's Status As Nation's First Latina Gov,  it's a glaring omission, at odds with their race pimp narrative, and justifiably suspect.

Or maybe these childish progressives - and their sycophant stenographers in the MSM - reserve their bigotry for Republicans only.

I'm sure that's true, Unsane, and in fact I did read portions of it.  But there are a lot of books I wish I had read but didn't.  There's still time to knock off a few of 'em.

Scratchmore, I know you have a hot date with your sister and the planning "behind the scenes" must be frantic, so I am done conversing with you nitwit.
