Is our media really vigilant?
I've been remiss in not giving props already to what I think is the best feature article to run in The Coast in months if not years. Stephen Kimber's "Paying for power" doesn't just hit the nail on the head when it comes to the dirty details of campaign/party financing in Nova Scotia—it is also a total throw-down on the sorry state of provincial political coverage in the Nova Scotia media.So is our media really vigilant?
The short answer is no.For more on the long answer, read the article...
The long answer is no too.

Wait til you read this week's cover piece, on the Doug Sparks seating arrangement situation. Probably the best story the Coast has run in years. Also by Kimber. Balanced, in-depth, sensitive and well researched.
Also depressing that no other paper or media outlet in town bothered.

Thanks, Rocco. Given our history on this subject (the paper, not the politics) I have to agree: it's the best article I've read since moving here.
Let it be just the beginning...
