Where’s the Duluth News Tribune?

They got our press release but they didn’t see fit to write a story about our billboard. Par for the course. They ignored engineer Art Johnston’s allegation that JCI’s initial planning was done with unlicensed architects and engineers.

They ignored local architect Robert Aho’s allegation that JCI was issuing contracts that are unethical and deny the School District any protection from JCI’s greed. No story’s at all. Nada.

If they won’t report the news why buy the paper? Maybe its time to organize a boycott. The Trib may may be eagerly looking forward to their share of the $150,000 that the District has budgeted for advertising. (My Gosh but that’s over two teachers worth of advertising. We never spent money like that) However, If a third of the folks who signed our petition quit buying the Trib for a month I’ll bet it would hurt worse than the crumbs the Ditrict throws to them.
