Are Day reporters a political candidate's press wing?
As a city resident, the fawning "journalism" by columnist David Collins and Staff Writer Kimberly Drelich showed zero objectivity and promoted one candidate in the City of Groton Democratic mayoral primary.
"Old white guy" Collins' first sentence of his January 9 column says, “I don’t know Aundré Bumgardner well, but I know enough about him to be certain that he would make an excellent mayor for the City of Groton.” He completely discredited himself by saying this! If Collins did an ounce of research, he would have found Bumgardner is unemployed, which was not revealed by The Day until just before the primary. Why did it take months for this critical information to come out?
