Proof that Rep. Gloria Johnson LIED About Elaine Davis on WBIR

In a program that aired on Sunday on WBIR, Rep. Gloria Johnson lied about Elaine Davis term on the Knox County Commission.

Johnson said that Davis spent discretionary funds on her children’s schools. Below is a screenshot of a story from October 30, 2008 authored by former Knox News Reporter Rebecca Ferrar who in the story said that Davis children DID NOT attend the schools that Davis selected for discretionary funds.

Johnson is building a reputation of saying misleading things which in East TN is considered lying. Johnson accused THP of shoving her outside legislative plaza, BUT when THP showed her the video, she back peddled.

Johnson said on WBIR that she would apologize. Now we wait…….

I am very uncomfortable addressing family members that are NOT political candidates. Apparently it doesn’t bother Johnson. However, since Johnson injected Davis three children in this campaign, the facts are her kids went to West Hills Elem, Bearden Middle, South-Doyle Middle School, Bearden High and South-Doyle High. 1 child spent 2 years Cedar Springs Homeschool.
