'Tis true.
Through no fault of their own the newspaper journalists have very little time to publish local stories, plus because of printing restraints they're very often printing old news.
This is a much easier way to gather and broadcast information, and can only be a good thing for democracy and people power.

I believe other young activists use Twitter for similar means.
Though I wouldn't know myself re:Twitter, because I think it's naff, peurile, and limiting.

I'd go futher and say that no elections have ever been what "we" would call "fair"...the national press have backed the opposition and history tells the press win elections.. but every little helps.. the Tories have the dosh and the best people money can by to win this one.. good luck you ******

Re: Forget Eton's playing fields. Think Accy Web.
There was over 15,000 reading General Chat, late the other night!
I think it's Mancie's doing.
