Almost a month has passed since the anonymous political links blog The Daily Fetch went silent. But the site announced Tuesday it will return this week. The timing coincides neatly with the Santa Clara Valley Water District's hiring of Kerry Hillis, the blog's reported buyer.

In a stunning gesture, County Supervisor Cindy Chavez this week recommended East Side’s favorite punch line, Xavier Campos, for a commendation for his one and only term on the San Jose City Council.

San Jose Inside has learned that Kerry Hillis, a policy aide currently on leave from county Supervisor Cindy Chavez’ staff, purchased the anonymous attack blog The Daily Fetch from political consultant Jay Rosenthal in late 2012, according to a source. Hillis has also done work for San Jose's police union and mayoral candidate Dave Cortese.
