There is no reference to Eco-Village any more, and the lead-out for the piece teases another segment on a later newscast relating to the crime reduction award.C29https://www.blogger.com/profile/02892023947358327595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2382985764534737174.post-80176857948601955452010-09-17T21:39:47.941-05:002010-09-17T21:39:47.941-05:00To be clear, Anon 9:22, I don't begrudge KSTP ...To be clear, Anon 9:22, I don't begrudge KSTP for reporting on a homicide. And if I'm the first to get photos of that scene, I'll post such things here as well (and claim exclusivity). Homicides, unfortunately, are newsworthy, and neither mainstream media nor blogs should shy away from newsworthy items.<br /><br />But KSTP rarely covers the positive elements of north Minneapolis. When they do, such stories are intermingled with the negative, as if those are interchangeable in our community. And in this specific case, they neglected to run a positive story even after they had attended the event and written a script.

I emailed complaining since there are clear North neighborhoods that fall outside of just Camden. I received a reply back that Camden is a more interesting and popular neighborhood and is therefor the name that should account for all North news.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09458069827648882659noreply@blogger.com
