Will the Knox News Sentinel Object to an Appearance of Nepotism and/or Cronyism?

The White House announced David Jolley as the East TN US Marshal. Jolley is the husband of Jane Jolly the Field Rep for United States Senator Bob Corker. They both will be working out of the Howard Baker Federal courthouse in Downtown Knoxville. He in the Marshals Office and she in Corker’s field office.

Sources indicate that Jolley was a Marshal in West Tennessee during a Bush Presidency. He moved to Knoxville to work with TVA Police, sources indicate that he left TVA taking a Medical Retirement. How that impacts his employment as a Marshal has raised a few eyebrows.

If this were two county agencies, KNS would be printing out some press. But they are quiet on this, Why the double standard?
