like the reporting for the first story. Black Press now owns pretty much every newspaper in BC and is in the process of shutting many of the community papers down. He has his hack who writes the most obscene right wing editorials and they've cut staff so most of the local news, letters and want ads are no more. Totally wrecked our local paper.
