Tyee Scoops the Dailies, 3-0
Why has it taken http://thetyee.ca to reveal the questionable connections of 3 BC cabinet ministers?
In 3 separate stories yesterday, writers for the local online news source showed possible conflicts of interest for Rich Colman, Barry Penner & Gordon Hogg.
This morning I asked thetyee editor, David Beers, about these stories and he laughed, "It didn't really take deep investigative journalism. Just some basic looking up of the facts."
And where have our local dailies been on these stories?
Read all three pieces:
Here...
and here...
and then here.

sorry david, but these stories seem like so much drivel. must we expect our politicians to completely liquidate before taking office? it's unrealistice and already hard enough to draw good people into this precarious profession. i find this type of 'reporting' immature and naive.
