The Tribune

EDITOR, The Tribune.

I WOULD like to congratulate the journalists and the Editor at The Tribune newspaper for being the first to report that the election date has been set for May 7.

I read the breaking news on The Tribune's attractive website around 5pm on April 10 after I got off from work.

I checked a popular Progressive Liberal Party Internet newspaper and another Internet daily around the same time and discovered that both of them had yet to report this story.

Even the Northern Service here in Freeport did not break this story on its 6pm radio newscast.

Needless to say, I was surprised. I thought that the election date would have been announced for the first time by the Prime Minister during his national address on the Broadcasting Corporation of The Bahamas.

But The Tribune seems to have beaten all of its competitors by getting this story first and reporting it to its loyal readership. Thank you and keep up the great work at The Tribune.
