‘Diatribe’

Dear Editor:

RE: A simple fix, Nov. 16.

It is understandable that the Advertiser staff are annoyed when the response of local politicians and media officers, to criticisms concerning communications with the paper, is to question the paper’s reach.

However, I did not find a “simple fix” proposed in the Nov. 16 editorial. Rather, it seems like the editor is in dire need of some cheese (with that whine). There are some valid grievances that could have benefited from a more considered presentation.

It seems that antagonizing the OPP media relations officers will not achieve the goals of the paper.

Perhaps these politicians hit a nerve? Perhaps spending some effort to build relationships with the OPP media relations staff is a better use of time and energy than composing such a diatribe.
