Apparently Willamette Week hands out it's "Voted Portland's Best" to psychics (or anyone else) like candy popcorn. It certainly appears there are no designated run-out dates, no policing of how these are used before the public in solicitations --- and in essense this Willamette Week "Seal of Approval" appears to be nothing more than fuzzy marketing fluff. Thus we have psychics now using the designation for years without apparently any oversight of their unsubstantiated paranormal claims or abilities. I take it Willamette Week is the new 'National Inquirer' when it comes to these 'Voted Portland's Best' toss-outs. How long has the sales department been overseeing the journalistic heritage for credibility at Willamette Week?
