Media Monitor: A bevy of Guardian gags and CNC3 gaffes but who gets the last laugh?
You laugh. In spite of yourself.

Raucous mid-morning laughter had also filled the Guardian newsroom way back in the 1990s as the word got around. Crime ace Francis Joseph had reported that a man who had been shot dead was buried alive the next morning.
And it had somehow managed to get into the day’s paper.
But if it’s any consolation, it’s not just here in T&T that stuff of that sort occurs. From a media source in the US of A came a similar report about the sister of CNN’s Don Lemon. It seems that, three years ago, she ‘unexpectedly died after drowning’.
Dear Editor: Covid-19 regulations unfairly and disproportionately affecting youth athletes
“[…] In primary schools, it is 2,475 from 4,960 students or 49.8% [who are inactive due to Covid-19 regulations], while it is 2,838 from 4,750 students in secondary schools or 60%. That means a combined total of 5,313 from 9,710 students in Tobago, or 58%.

‘Nobody is being told anything!’ Hadad slammed for poor communication and constitutional violations
Trinidad and Tobago Football Referees Association (TTFRA) vice-president Osmond Downer has criticised Fifa-appointed normalisation committee chairman Robert Hadad for either ignoring the local body’s constitution or totally misunderstanding his role within the Trinidad and Tobago Football Association (TTFA).
Hadad and his three-member committee, which includes Judy Daniel and Nigel Romano, replaced the TTFA Board on 27 March 2020 with a specific mandate to: run the TTFA’s daily affairs, establish a debt repayment plan, review and amend the constitution (where necessary), and conduct elections for a new board.
