Lisa Jorgensen

I think most of us have heard of Lisa Jorgensen and her newsletter called the Chapala Reporter, that she attempts to sell on a yearly basis as a newspaper.

Is she still around?

No, I am not recommending her newsletter.

Who knows. After her "aggressive and inaccurate" reporting of that shooting in Vista Alegra last year I heard there was a deportation effort being considered and I haven't seen or heard a word from or about her since.

I still see her adv every once in a while but didn't think that she was still around.

Somehow, I got on her mailing list, altho I have never subscribed and I never open the emails. I do read the headline, I must admit--today's is "Cyclists Will Protest for Bike Path Safety Every Tuesday."

I don't know if she's still living in this area or not, but she's "still around". She got ahold of (bought?/stole?) an entire email list from a local business association so I'm hearing from her every few days now via email. She's resurrected her pay-to-read newsletter.

And she's also started an exciting new, on-line, locally oriented, for-profit business venture. Surprised nobody has mentioned it. I'm certain it will be a huge success. She's thrilling.

She didn't seem to jump on the latest gringo murder to give us all the info no one else has.

Oh, she "jumped" on it. Probably came up empty and yet still tried to use it to get people to pay for a subscription. No thanks, Lisa.

Oh,her new business venture will be called what? M.M. Bean, Mercado not so Libre, or maybe Amazonian or Trader Jose’s?

Or, L.L. Beanbrain, Stiff the Subscribers, Maligning For Money, or Rent Skippers. She should play to her strengths.

Pete, I don't understand you. You are a nice, knowledgeable guy. Why do you insist on bringing up her name every couple of months? Now you have everyone talking about her again. All free publicity, and not deserved.

Yep. Just what she thrives on. Why do you even care, Pete?

She sure doesn’t thrive on what is said about her here.

I might add that she was all over the newbie groups on Facebook at one time until a true recap of her history here along with a listing of all her businesses here with their oddly similar names to well known companies (hers failed) was posted on those groups. She couldn’t rebut it because it was all true. So let the light shine on her. At least new people have an idea what she’s about and can make their own choices.

I´d like to repeat that is spades.

Well, I was curious. Because someone asked if he should respond to one of her advs. And I responded He11 NO.  I thought that the newbies need to be warned about her. And I feared that she might be around again trying to find suckers.

Do you really believe she likes this type of post? I would have thought we are helping people learn the truth about her.  Sorry if I am wrong.

She probably does like these posts. You know what they say....."Even bad publicity is better than no publicity at all". She's like the proverbial bad penny, that keeps turning up!
