I read your last issue (May 9) with shock and dismay, thinking someone had delivered the National Enquirer to my driveway in error.
Your above the fold story was nothing less than a personal attack on Mayor Suzette Cooke. After all the accusations about an essentially private condominium matter this story boiled down to someone who is obviously going through a time of financial hardship having difficulty with a large bill with not much prior notice.
This article began with an attack and continued with innuendo (can she handle Kent finances?) and finally at the end a recap of what should have been her personal financial affairs.
She has not been civilly accused for any private or more importantly public misdeeds. Sounds like a private grievance given a public forum and not our business.
No, I am not a friend, just a citizen who has known her in the public forum since her first state Legislature House campaign. Mayor Cooke deserves better than this.
