In my opinion it is sad that the NCJ did not cover the Reggae story with any credible reporting. One reporter attended for the opening statements of the production company and then left the last two weeks of trial uncovered when the reporting that resulted from the first few days was proven to be botched and grossly misleading. Subsequent coverage has been less distorted but stills reflected a highly biased and compromised viewpoint from the entertainment reporter. But other coverage in the year has shown that some other reporting has been better and less biased. I hope in the future NCJ can continue to improve and maybe I will consider picking up the paper on a regular basis again.
