Oz has underhandedly framed an entire, respected ethnic community with bogus, ad hominem attacks with his sweeping and unconscionable statements tying alleged hospice fraud in Los Angeles to a diverse Armenian-American community. This is the same community which has given this country its fair share of state governors and Supreme Court Justices, federal, state and local legislators, university presidents and professors, business leaders and health-care innovators, pioneering astronauts and award-winning artists, and one-million law-abiding residents. These are the same families which have, for generations, faithfully served this country, both as enlisted service-members and as responsible citizens.
The Armenian Bar Association demands Oz’s course correction and apology, and requests that the L.A. Times consider making further inquiries into Oz’s flagrant malfeasance which trespasses probity and tramples truth, all under the convenient cover of office.
