In the Kirkland Reporter of June 3 you had an “article” that told of Tom Hodgson’s bid for re-election. But, this item had no by-line and it sure read like a reprint of his press release. An even-handed article would have made lengthy mention of the very contentious, and possibly illegal, issues that he was involved in during the battle over Park Place development. Presentation of this kind of “puff piece” makes the Reporter seem seriously lacking in objectivity.
