Kudos to Campy
Congratulations to Jim Campanini, editor of The Sun, on his award for “best editorial on a local subject” from the New England Newspaper Association as printed in today’s paper (couldn’t find the paragraph noting the award on The Sun’s website for linking, sorry). Luckily for Campy, the judges didn’t check the facts because this editorial has the same errors and half-truths it did when it was first published in June 2008. The newspaper reprinted the editorial today, explaining it was “the first time The Sun has received this award” as the reason for the replay. For me, the editorial has always stood out, not only for its inaccuracies and blatant attack on me personally, but because it was the start of about eight weeks of coverage on the same topic.
