Shame on The Record newspaper! A clear bias against NDP candidate Judy Darcy was evident in the most recent article concerning the new bridge between Coquitlam and New Westminster.

Five of the first seven paragraphs of the article focused exclusively on Liberal candidate Hector Bremner as if his was the dominant or most important viewpoint. NDP candidate Darcy did not appear until paragraph 15.

Interesting editorial choice, since Darcy is the poll-favorite to win the election.

Hey, Record newspaper, some of us are much smarter than you give us credit. And some of us are also frequent advertisers in your publication. If you made a mistake, then it is a careless and stupid one. If you did it on purpose, then you will fast lose credibility with this community and perhaps some businesses as well.

Obvious biased coverage such as this is not tolerable.
