Since traditional journalism is on life support, with exceptions such as Vermont Daily Chronicle and it’s talented and dedicated contributors, it is refreshing to see more independent reporting. Crime reporting in particular is subject to political bias and suppression so as to not taint one end of the ideological spectrum and/or certain municipalities as being prone to lawlessness. Vermont Public radio and our local TV network affiliates can still be counted on to provide comprehensive coverage of craft fairs, festivals and 10 minute discussions about the day’s weather. Thank you Planet Hank and Brattleboro News for providing information about who, what and where to avoid to stay safe.
